A man was stabbed near a bus stop in White Center on Thursday night, Sept. 11, and deputies quickly arrested a suspect who was already wanted on a felony warrant, according to the King County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies responded just after 9 p.m. Thursday night to a report of a stabbing near the White Center Mini Mart in the 1500 block of SW Roxbury Street (map below).

When aid units arrived, they found a man with injuries from the attack. He was transported to Harborview Medical Center for treatment.
