Police arrived to find the victim suffering from at least one stab wound. He was taken to the hospital. His condition was not immediately known.

The suspect had already fled the scene before police arrived, authorities said.

Crime scene investigators later returned to the scene and gathered a piece of evidence from the roof of a convenience store.

There appeared to be an exchange of words before the stabbing, but it's still not clear why the situation turned violent.
