Police have arrested 45-year-old Pedro Nunez-Valdivia of Gresham on assault, strangulation, and unlawful use of a weapon charges.
Haberman was walking with a friend when he noticed a man and a woman fighting Friday night and intervened. The man stabbed him and fled, but police later arrested him.
The woman suffered a cut hand.
