Slice of life in San Francisco’s Tenderloin

A man’s head was sliced with a box cutter in the Tenderloin on Tuesday, police said.

The 42-year-old victim got into a confrontation with a 33-year-old box cutter-wielding man in the 500 block of O’Farrell Street around 9:20 p.m., police said.

Police arrived and arrested the goon and transported the victim to the hospital for his injury, which was not life threatening.
