Sacramento truck driver injured in Wyoming stabbing, local Sikh organization says<\/p>\n

\"Nijzel<\/p>\n

A truck driver who was stabbed in Wyoming earlier this month is from Sacramento, according to the Jakara Movement, a California-based Sikh community organization. <\/p>\n

The organization identified the stabbing victim as Gurvinder Singh. The Sweetwater County Sheriff’s Office in Wyoming said the stabbing happened at 3:27 a.m. on Sept. 13 near a rest area on Interstate 80. <\/p>\n

Deputies found a man suffering from cuts and stab wounds and detectives later determined the suspect fled the scene in a tractor-trailer, the sheriff’s office said. The suspect was later found in Rawlins, Wyoming, by highway patrol and arrested for attempted homicide, the sheriff’s office told KCRA 3.<\/p>\n

Both the Jakara Movement and the Sweetwater County Sheriff’s Office said that a family followed the stabbing suspect on the highway and directed law enforcement to his location.<\/p>\n

Jasjit Singh, the director of legal services for the Jakara Movement, told KCRA 3 he went to Wyoming to speak with Gurvinder Singh, who is still in the hospital for treatment of his stabbing injuries. <\/p>\n

A GoFundMe has been set up for Gurvinder Singh’s medical expenses. <\/a> <\/p>\n
