Hard to tell - impossible even but - had this guy been maybe more alert and carrying - he could have been more aware to expecting trouble and reacted accordingly - plus maybe too he could have escaped the situation - who knows.
The moment anyone approached me for a cash handout, I'd be probably straight into orange if not bright red!

A 20-year-old man was slashed with a knife Friday night in Oakland, police said. He was inside the Exxon gas station on McKee Place about 8:22 p.m. when a stranger asked him for money for cigarettes and he refused, according to a police report. The stranger cut the man's neck once with a knife.
Police did not identify the victim, who they said walked to Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh for treatment and was released Saturday. He gave no description of his attacker.
