Police in Florida are searching for a man they believed stabbed a good Samaritan and stole his car after the injured man offered to help him by giving him a ride.

Officers reportedly responded to calls of a person stabbed at around 6 p.m. on Saturday night. Responding officers found the victim suffering from apparent stab wounds, CBS News reported. He was taken to a hospital in stable condition.

Police say the alleged attacker approached the victim in a parking lot in Miami-Dade County and asked him for a ride, CBS said. The man, who is not a ride-share driver, reportedly agreed to take him to a nearby location.
