Second stabbing at Occupy S.F. camp in two days

A 27-year-old Occupy protester was stabbed Monday night outside the Federal Reserve Bank in San Francisco, one day after another activist was stabbed in the same spot, police and demonstrators said today.

The latest victim was stabbed once in the neck around 11:40 p.m. after a confrontation with a man who was unaffiliated with the Occupy camp, protesters said.

The stabber approached campers and began screaming about a conspiracy theory involving the World Trade Center, said Nick Shaw, 32, an Occupy protester.

The victim, whom fellow campers knew only as "Jimbo," chased him down the steps to the Embarcadero BART and Muni Metro station, Shaw said. The man turned and stabbed him.
