One person was killed and two others were injured in a knife attack outside a Phish concert Friday in Hampton, Virginia.
Officers responded to a report of a stabbing outside the Hampton Coliseum in the 1000 block of Coliseum Drive, and located two adult men with laceration injuries, according to the Hampton Police Department.
A preliminary investigation revealed a fight broke out following an argument between several people, and the suspect fled on foot after the attack, according to the release found on the department's website.

One person was detained after additional officers in the area were able to locate them, but, so far, no charges or arrests have been made.
Fire and rescue personnel responded and gave medical assistance, where they transported the two men, one of whom died from his injuries at a local hospital, according the release written by Hampton police officer Shaun Stalnaker. A third person with a non-life-threatening laceration arrived later at a local hospital and was treated, according to his report.
Police said the attack appeared to be an "isolated incident," and the case is still under investigation.
The Vermont jam band released a statement of their own via Instagram, explaining the altercation occurred behind one of the tents in the unofficial vending area:
"During last night’s show, a tragic incident took place in the parking lot outside Hampton Coliseum. There was an altercation behind one of the tents in the unofficial vending area in which someone lost their life and two other people were injured. We don’t have more information than what has been reported by the police, who called it an isolated incident, but what we do know is upsetting enough. We are deeply saddened by this and our hearts go out to all of those affected,” the band wrote in a statement."
