A 19-year-old man suffered a small stab wound early Friday morning when he tried to stop a man who allegedly walked into a San Francisco Mexican restaurant, ordered a burrito and then left without paying for it.
Around 12:30 a.m., the suspect entered the restaurant, located in the 2200 block of Mission Street, and ordered a burrito, according to police.
After receiving his food, the suspect left without paying. Another man then chased after the suspect, police said.

The suspect again fled, heading west on 19th street, police said.
The victim was taken to a hospital with injuries not considered life-threatening.
A description of the burrito thief was unavailable and no arrest has been made as of this morning.
