DANIA BEACH, FLA. (WSVN) – Detectives with the Broward Sheriff’s Office have released surveillance footage of an “unprovoked” stabbing incident at a Dania Beach gas station and are asking the public for help in identifying the attacker.

According to BSO, the incident occurred shortly before midnight on May 19 at the Sunoco gas station at 1201 South Federal Highway.

When BSO officers initially responded to a reported shooting, they reportedly discovered a man who had been stabbed.
