Pittsburgh police are investigating after a man was reportedly stabbed in downtown Pittsburgh on Saturday afternoon.
City police responded to the 300 block of Third Avenue just after 1 p.m. for a man reporting he had been stabbed, city police spokeswoman Emily Bourne said.
Upon arrival, officers found the man, who said he had been approached by a man he did not know and demanded his belongings, Bourne said.
The man told officers that when he refused, he was stabbed, Bourne said.
The man had stab wounds to his right hand, wrist and his side, Bourne said. He was taken to the hospital in stable condition.
The man was unable to provide a solid description of the person who had stabbed him, or a clear location as to where the incident took place, Bourne said. Officers searched the area, but were unable to determine a crime scene.
Police continue their investigation.
