Corey Feldman claims he was stabbed multiple times on Tuesday evening by an unknown assailant, a spokesman for the LAPD confirmed to Variety.
The “Goonies” star is in stable condition after going to a local hospital. The police spokesperson said there was no laceration to Feldman’s abdomen or any additional injuries. The department does not have a suspect description, nor has it determined what weapon was used in the attack. An investigation is ongoing.
Feldman later tweeted images of himself in a hospital bed and claimed that he was targeted by a “wolfpack.” The child star of such films as “Stand By Me” and “The Lost Boys” has been outspoken in his claims that there is a long-standing pedophile ring involving powerful Hollywood men. He says he and his friend Corey Haim were both molested by industry figures when they were young actors. Haim died in 2010 at age 38. Last November, the LAPD ended an investigation into the allegations, saying the incident was outside the statute of limitations.

“I have had mounting threats on all [social media] platforms by this vile ‘wolfpack’ & I’m this I’m sure is a result of those negative actions,” he wrote. “I have reason 2 believe it’s all connected! Enough is enough! How sick r these ppl?!?”
Feldman’s car was stopped at a red light at 10:45 p.m., a police spokesman said, when someone opened the door and made “a stabbing motion with an unknown object.” On Twitter, Feldman said he was in the car with his security when three men approached. One opened his door and stabbed him, the actor claims.
“Please say prayers 4 us,” Feldman tweeted.
Corey Feldman says he was attacked while in his car in Los Angeles and has posted pictures of himself from a hospital bed.

The 46-year-old former child star who was in movies such as "Goonies" and "The Lost Boys" also suggested in a tweet that the attack was connected to threats he has received on social media by what he called a "vile 'wolfpack.'"
"@LAPD R CURRENTLY INVESTIGATING THE CASE AS AN ATTEMPTED HOMICIDE! I HAVE HAD MOUNTING THREATS ON ALL SM PLATFORMS BY THIS VILE “WOLFPACK” & THIS IM SURE IS A RESULT OF THOSE NEGATIVE ACTIONS! I HAVE REASON 2 BELIEVE ITS ALL CONNECTED! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! HOW SICK R THESE PPL?!?" the "Goonies" star wrote.

Los Angeles police told ABC News that at 10:45 p.m. Tuesday night, Feldman says he and a passenger were in a car stopped at a red light when an unknown male opened the door and "jabbed Feldman in the abdominal area with an unknown object," the actor told police.
Police said Feldman then drove himself to the hospital, where he was in stable condition. Police said it appeared there was no laceration. Police told ABC News they currently have no suspect and no known motive.
Feldman has alleged that he was sexually molested as a child actor by what he has described as a Hollywood pedophile ring. He has expressed concern for his safety since he began raising money through a crowdfunding site to produce a film called "Truth" about his alleged experiences as a child.

Last fall, he filed an official police complaint alleging child molestation, but Los Angeles police said they were the case because the statute of limitations had run out.
