MARYSVILLE — On May 15 at approximately 8:24 a.m., the Marysville Police Department responded to a report of an assault and robbery in the area of an apartment complex in the 1200 block of State Avenue NE.

The victim, a 20-year-old male from Mount Vernon, stated that he received a ride from the original scene of the incident, which he stated was the bus stop at Fourth Street and 47th Avenue, to the apartment complex, where he asked friends to call for aid for his injuries.

The victim stated that he was struck on the head and stabbed by unknown assailants while standing at the bus stop. Furthermore, the victim alleges he was robbed of an undetermined amount of money. He sustained injuries to his head and stab wounds to his arm and leg. He was transported with non-life threatening injuries, via ambulance, to the Providence Regional Medical Center Everett Colby Campus for treatment.

The victim was uncooperative with the officers on scene and did not want to pursue charges as of press time. The original scene of the incident is still in question, although Marysville Police believe this was not a random act of violence.
