San Jose police are investigating a double stabbing that authorities say stemmed from a road rage incident in the Willow Glen area.
The stabbing was reported before noon Tuesday on Cottle Avenue near Curtner Avenue, according to police. Two men were injured.
Neighbors said they became aware of the incident as law enforcement activity increased in the area.
"We did notice some police cars and then more police cars," neighbor Dave Frizzi said.
"There were helicopters over. I couldn't get into my home because, you know, the street was blocked off," neighbor Christine Nguyen recalled.
Residents described seeing a large police presence and evidence markers at the scene.
"There was some sort of road rage incident. So I don't know what happened," Nguyen said.
Police said the two victims did not remain at the reported stabbing location. Instead, officers found them about 1 miles away after they made their way to a fire station seeking help.
Both victims are expected to recover from their injuries.
Broadcast radio traffic indicated emergency responders were treating two patients.

"It looks like we have two patients. One was stabbed in the head. The other was stabbed in the back. We started a second code three ambulance," a dispatcher said in radio traffic.
Police have not said whether the victims knew the suspect. When asked, the San Jose Police Department said only that the case remains an active and ongoing investigation.
As of the latest information provided by police, the suspect had fled and had not been arrested.
"This kind of thing doesn't happen very often. So when the street's blocked off and there's nine cop cars, people notice," Dave said.
For nearby residents, the incident was unsettling. Neighbors said they are hoping more details about what happened will emerge as the investigation continues.
