Chris Haberski writes me swearing this is true, that he’s Nick Manning’s roommate: Nick Manning, adult film star and co-owner of Platinum Blue Productions, was stabbed in the face and neck, narrowly missing his jugular, by a would-be car-jacker in Sherman Oaks Thursday afternoon on Ventura Boulevard . Manning was on his way to appear on a radio show hosted by the Coors Light Twins when he was attacked while sitting in his car on the phone at a bank parking lot.

After being stabbed, a struggle outside of the vehicle ensued between Manning and the perpetrator. Police arrived on the scene and the perpetrator was taken away via ambulance to an un-disclosed hospital.

Manning was tended to by his personal physician and released later in the afternoon with stitches in his face and neck. ?Another inch and this would have been a potentially deadly situation?, said Manning’s physician. Manning was unavailable for comment
