A Ventura County convenience store clerk who tried to stop two men from stealing alcohol ended up in the hospital after being stabbed.
It happened Sunday night in Simi Valley. Two men entered a store on Los Angeles Avenue, grabbed some alcohol and ran out the door. The clerk chased them.
The men dropped the alcohol near a creek bed. The clerk was picking up the items when the men came back and attacked him.
The two men then fled on foot. The clerk is recovering from what police say was a non-life threatening stab wound.
