Police in Syracuse, N.Y., sifted through several different accounts of how former Syracuse University basketball star Tony (Red) Bruin was stabbed during a late-night robbery Tuesday, but they said there were no suspects in the case.

Bruin reported being attacked by two masked men, who robbed him of $2,000 while he was waiting for a cab at the home of a woman. Bruin was listed in satisfactory condition at Upstate Medical Center. Police said he suffered tendon damage to his left arm in the attack.

Bruin was sentenced to perform 500 hours of community service and five years’ probation earlier this year after pleading guilty to possession of cocaine. He had completed his four-year career at Syracuse in 1983 as the team’s 14th-leading scorer and was later drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers. He failed to make the team.
