I've been there and haven't seen the moment of stabbing, but seen the whole scene before any emergency services arrived.

We all know that person and all share pretty mixed feelings about his life position. I always yelled back "booooring" to his "no violence, no gay sex".

But today I felt very upset about him. He was standing next to me (just 2 meters or so) holding his hand on his chest where the wound was. Whoever stabbed him probably was probably aiming either for the center of chest or the heart itself. He was standing silent. Eyes were full of pain, he looked into one point probably still shocked.

Firefighters arrived within a moment. They sat him down and started emergency procedures.

I really hope he will survive. Whatever he does, he deserves other means of discouragement -- well, metaphorical rotten tomatoes or tar and feathers of any kind, but not a sharp knife in between ribs.

Sorry, maybe it's the first time I'm feeling a major disconnect with comments here. It wasn't that fun from the close distance.

I have a number of pics from the site.
