The suspects are two “Asian or Filipino” men who on the day of the attack were wearing white shirts and blue jeans, police said. They were seen leaving the area in a late model Toyota Camry.

Stone and two childhood friends from Sacramento—Alek Skarlatos and Anthony Sadler—became celebrities in August when they tackled and disarmed a gunman with ties to radical Islam.

Stone, 23, was knifed several times in the torso shortly after leaving a bar, where an hour earlier he was applauded by patrons.

He was released Thursday from UC Davis Medical.
