WEST VALLEY CITY — Police are looking the driver of a green Toyota Camry after an 18-year-old man was stabbed in the face Saturday evening.

The incident began about 6:35 p.m. at the 7-Eleven located at 3060 Constitution Blvd. Two groups of teens were talking at the gas pumps when a Camry drove by and the driver exchanged words with two teens outside of their vehicles, according to West Valley Police Lt. Amy Maurer.

The Camry’s driver then got out of the car and stabbed the 18-year-old man in the face with “something sharp” before getting back in and driving off, Maurer said.

The man was transported to a nearby hospital with minor injuries.

Police are searching for video of the incident in hopes of locating the suspect, Maurer said.

Anyone with information on the incident can contact West Valley police at 801-840-4000.
