DeKalb County police Monday were investigating an overnight stabbing that left the victim so badly injured that doctors were forced to amputate a leg.
The incident happened just after midnight at the Peachcrest Gardens Apartments on Glenwood Road, according to Channel 2 Action News.
Officers responding to reports that a man had been attacked and stabbed found the 27-year-old man lying in the parking lot with multiple stab wounds.
The victim, whose name has not been released, was in critical condition early Monday after doctors amputated the man’s leg to save his life, Channel 2 reported.
Investigators told the station that the area where the attack happened was so dark no one was able to get a description on the number of attackers.
Police have not released a motive for the attack.
