A man died at a hospital Saturday, Dec. 6, after he was stabbed in the drive-thru lane of a chicken restaurant in Santa Ana, authorities said.
Santa Ana police were called to the Pollo Campero restaurant, 2320 S. Bristol St., about 4:30 p.m. after a man called police and told them he saw a man down in the drive-thru, Officer Natalie Garcia said.
The stabbing occurred in the drive-thru lane, but the circumstances surrounding it were not known, Garcia said. Detectives canvassed the area for possible witnesses and surveillance video into the night Saturday.
The victim was a Santa Ana resident, Garcia said, but further information about him was not yet known. The man was not identified by police pending notification of his relatives.
The restaurant sits on the west side of Bristol Street just south of Warner Avenue.
