A teenage girl was sent to the hospital with stab wounds Tuesday evening after another teen assaulted her on a bus and then on a sidewalk, Seattle police said.
Police are investigating the 7:45 p.m. stabbing at Third Avenue and Pine Street in downtown Seattle, police spokesman Sean Whitcomb said.
The fight between a 16-year-old girl and an 18-year-old woman began on a Metro bus, Whitcomb said. At some point during the fight, the 18-year-old pulled a knife and began stabbing the younger girl, he said.
The victim, who suffered superficial, not life-threatening wounds, was taken to Harborview Medical Center for treatment. The attacker was pursued by witnesses until she was caught by police several blocks away, Whitcomb said.
