Man Found Stabbed Outside Gas Station on Palm Avenue

San Diego police are investigating the stabbing death of a man found outside a gas station in the 2200 block of Palm Avenue early Saturday morning.

Officers responded to reports of a fight near the gas station at 12:50 a.m. and found a 29-year-old man down on the sidewalk, according to Lt. Kevin Rooney. Paramedics attempted live-saving procedures but the man was pronounce dead at the scene.

The man may have been involved in a fight with the occupants of a tan, four-door sedan, possibly a Nissan Altima, that was last seen traveling westbound on Palm Avenue, according to Rooney. At least three males were seen in the car, Rooney said.

The San Diego police Homicide Unit is investigating the man’s death. Detectives have made a tentative identification but have not released his name pending fingerprint confirmation by the Medical Examiner’s Office, according to Rooney.
