He helped stop a terror attack on a European train, met President Obama and even had a parade in his honor.

But on Thursday, Airman 1st Class Spencer Stone found himself in a seedy situation — getting stabbed four times during a street brawl in downtown Sacramento.

Surveillance video shows the 23-year-old Stone getting ambushed by a group of men around 12:45 a.m. following a night of barhopping with pals.

At least three men lunge at Stone as he swings back at them, according to the video taken outside A&P Liquors. About a minute into the fight, a dark blood stain seeps through Stone’s white dress shirt as he staggers back onto the sidewalk.

He was rushed to UC Davis Medical Center, where he underwent emergency surgery with four knife wounds in his upper torso. As of Thursday evening, Stone was listed in serious but stable condition.

The brawl was just a block away from Badlands Dance Club — which bills itself as “Sacramento’s Premier Gay Nightclub” — and police spent about two hours going in and out of the hot spot on Thursday.

Cops are still looking for the suspects, who were wearing white T-shirts and jeans. They fled the scene in a dark-colored Toyota Camry.
