When the victim told the robber he had no ATM card, the robber began stabbing him in the head and face.

The victim was taken to the hospital in serious condition, and his truck was found at 4800 Olson.

The robber was described as a Latino male, 25-30 years old, with straight black hair, and his first name might be Richard.
