Police believe report of woman stabbed in Magna is a hoax

Police believe the report of a woman stabbed while jogging in Magna on Sunday is a hoax.

The woman had reported that, as she was jogging in Magna Copper Park on Sunday night, she was confronted by two or three people who attempted to rob her and then stabbed her. “But she had no description of her attackers, and no real information,” Gray said.

“The doctors believe that these stab wounds were probably self-inflicted,” said Sgt. Melody Gray of the Unified Police Department. “This was not a random stabbing, and we don’t want to cause public panic.”
