A case of mistaken identity left a Modesto man hospitalized in serious condition after a stabbing this morning in south Modesto, authorities reported.
The incident happened about 6:15 a.m. in the 900 block of west Whitmore Avenue. Four men, later identified by Modesto police as Norteño gang members, kicked in the victim's door while he was sleeping. The 33-year-old victim was kicked, punched and stabbed in the upper right side of his back and had a laceration across his left eyebrow, a police spokesman said. The four men then realized they had the wrong house and told the victim they were sorry. They fled in an older gray car with no windows.
The victim was taken to a Modesto hospital.
No further information was available.

Hey, it’s more than the cops do when they raid the wrong home!

Norteños are Mexican gang members. They were raised Catholic, so they are much more polite to their victims than Crips and Bloods would be. ;)

You're right, of course. These gang bangers are certainly morally superior to cops. Actually, sometimes, some of them have a lot in common.

Modesto may look different that it used to, but it’ll never change.

I’d flog each one on the bare back till they bleed to death, giving each one a salt-water washdown after each lash and saying “I’m sorry”

Seems God at least has planted a tiny seed for their redemption. I only wonder when it will sprout.
