CHICAGO (STNG) -- A man claiming to be a "knife salesman" tripped on a CTA bus Sunday morning on the Northwest Side and accidentally stabbed himself in the leg.
About 8 a.m., a man was walking down the aisle of a CTA bus near Belmont and Milwaukee avenues when he tripped and accidentally cut himself in the leg with one of his own knives, police News Affairs Officer Laura Kubiak said.
The man told police it was an accident and that he was a "knife salesman," Kubiak said.
Fire Media Affairs Dir. Larry Langford said the man, who was selling knives out of a suitcase, lost a lot of blood but his injuries were not believed to be life threatening.
