CROWN HEIGHTS — Police are looking for three men wanted for questioning in the stabbing of a 21-year-old man in front of Medgar Evers College.

The man was stabbed in the lower back multiple times outside the college's 1650 Bedford Ave. building in Crown Heights by one of three men who approached him at 2:38 p.m. on Nov. 2, police said.

The victim was treated at Kings County Hospital and is in stable condition, police said. DNAinfo New York previously reported the incident in the 71st Precinct crime blotter.

On Wednesday, the NYPD released photos of the men wanted in regards to the stabbing. Currently, the police department has not identified suspects in the case and only wants to question the men in the surveillance footage.

Anyone with information in regards to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers hotline at (800) 577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, (888) 57-PISTA (74782).  

CORRECTION: This story previously identified the location of the Nov. 2 stabbing as outside the Ebbets Field apartment complex, which is located at 1680 Bedford Ave., not 1650 Bedford Ave.
