Last night at 11:45 p.m. in Belltown, a man was stabbed for a) refusing to offer a cigarette when asked and b) possibly responding to racial slurs with racial slurs. The SPD Blotter narrates the contretemps: "The argument was sparked when one of the men asked the victim for a cigarette. The victim refused to give him one, and the suspect took offense, asking if the victim was unwilling to give him a cigarette because he was Black." And then: "The victim did not initially realize that he had been stabbed, but soon noticed that he was bleeding profusely."
