He was attacked by another hiker? As a hiker myself, I would like a little elaboration on this...

[weho_brian]

those teenagers are well raised, god bless

What? "Police do not think there is an ongoing risk to the public." A hiker was attacked by another person and left injured. Fire rescue and police were notified. But" it alright now." What are you talking about? So they know who it is and are giving that person a pass? Why are they so sure there is not "ongoing risk"? Dude almost died.

Police say there's no threat to the public, so what's the real story?

Let's make a newscast revealing absolutely nothing at all.

Um..I'm glad this man is okay but what's really going on here?

I appreciate the feel good story but...🤔

[rayrwyr]

If you hike alone, you better be prepared to defend yourself from a random attacker.

[pallavisharma]

Thank you all, who helped a stranger. Humanity is still alive

[joncarling]

Something doesn't add up here....

Why is it these news outlets focus more on the “feel good” aspect of story and don’t even ask some important follow-up questions like, why does law-enforcement think there is no longer a threat? It’s absurd isn’t it?

At this point I'd rather run into a bear than a human in California. That sounds like a serial killer who attacks hikers.

Waiting for a follow-up of the investigation.

You're givng pieces to a puzzle but they're from different boards.

Those teens should be so proud of themselves. Most people would not help or assist. Mad respect for them. Saved this man's life ❤

No risk to the public??? You guys are tripping.

Humboldt county is a very weird and mysterious place, it’s beautiful but in the deep back country you get some very interesting and dangerous characters. I hike around there somewhat often traveling from a neighboring county. They have one of the highest missing persons in the nation in the small emerald triangle

So with no thorough investigation complete, law enforcement announces that there is no ongoing threat to the public. So the victim was hiking the trail at night (strange place to be at night), then was brutally attacked by someone who they described as another hiker, and then left for dead. Apparently the attacker whose identity is unknown is still at large, and no description was given. Forgive me but if I am on that trail now or plan to be in the immediate future, please tell me why shouldn’t I be concerned. Shout out to the group who rendered aid, but seriously, there must be more to this story…..

Bravo 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾 and million thanks to the young ladies and men’s for helping the hiker. God Bless ❤

No. No. No one "camping" is out walking a trail at 10pm. They're by there campsite or in a tent. So....what's the real story here ??

Attacked by one hiker out of blue.
Saved by other hikers out of blue.

This blue color is confusing
