A Bangor man told Bangor police that he was on the Kenduskeag Stream footbridge just before 3 a.m. Wednesday when two men who wanted money approached him. When he refused, he was stabbed in the arm and leg, according to the police report.

The 24-year-old victim was able to walk to a pay phone to call police, then went home to await an ambulance, which took him to Eastern Maine Medical Center. His injuries were described as minor, said Bangor police Sgt. Jim Buckley. The case has been referred to the criminal investigation division, but there were no suspects as of Wednesday afternoon, he said. (Nok-Noi Ricker, BDN)
