Council Bluffs Police are looking for a suspect after a fight between a bicyclist and a passenger in a car left one person hospitalized.
Just after 5 p.m. on Wednesday, officers were called to an injury report near the 10th block of Bluff Street.
Police say the incident began when a man riding a bike cut in front of a vehicle, leading the bicyclist and driver to exchange words.
A 45-year-old passenger in the car then got out, leading to a fight. During that exchange, the passenger was stabbed in the leg, and the suspect fled.
Police expect the passenger to survive.
