ST. THOMAS \u2013 A man dancing with a woman in a Charlotte Amalie night club in the early morning hours Wednesday was stabbed in the stomach and leg by an unknown man, according to police.<\/p>\n
The man said someone tapped him on the shoulder when he was dancing with the woman and when he turned around he saw a black male brandishing a knife, police said.
