Victim Offers $10,000 For Road Rager Who Stabbed Him

A confrontation over a parking spot in Culver City escalated into a man getting slashed in the neck and stabbed in the abdomen.

CULVER CITY, CA – The victim of an apparent road rage incident in Culver City is offering up his own $10,000 reward in hopes of identifying the attacker. The man, a financial adviser named George who declined to use his last name for his safety, was viciously attacked over a parking space, Los Angeles police have confirmed.

Although the Los Angeles Police Department is investigating, George wants his attacker to be caught as soon as possible so it doesn't happen again, KTLA reported. The incident occurred on Venice Boulevard, around 5 p.m. on March 26, police said. George was parked in a space making appointments when a small black sports car pulled up behind him, honking for him to move forward. George told KTLA there was no room.

The man spit all over the side window of his car, walked away, and then returned a few minutes later with a knife in hand, George said.

"He actually was coming back toward the car with a knife and I got out of car because I realized if he broke window of the car then I'm in the car, and I would be stabbed with nowhere to go," he told KTLA. "I ended up getting slashed on neck, stabbed in abdomen. And then I grabbed his knife and caught the knife itself and ended up getting nine stitches on my hand."

Officials described the suspect as a white or Latino man in his late 20s to early 30s. Anyone with information can contact LAPD detectives on the case at 310-482-6421.
