A manhunt is underway after a cook was stabbed in the chest in Marbella.

The incident took place shortly after midnight on Thursday, October 2, but details only emerged today.

Police sources told Diario Sur that the attacker had placed an order at a fast food restaurant on the night in question.

He is then said to have started an argument with the eatery’s employees after complaining that his food was taking too long.

According to witnesses, he ended up attacking a cook and stabbed him in the chest, before fleeing the scene.

The business owner rushed the injured worker to hospital in his own car. Luckily, his injury was not fatal.

The Policia Nacional is leading the investigation.
