Man Stabbed During HATEBREED Concert In Providence

July 25, 2003

A man was stabbed during a HATEBREED concert Thursday night (July 24) at Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel in downtown Providence, Rhode Island, according to WPRI Fox Providence.

Two young men started fighting over a woman around 9:00 p.m. and one of them stabbed the other in the stomach with a folding knife.

The wound was minor, and the victim was treated at the scene.

The suspect took off but was caught a few blocks away.

Lupo's general manager said they were trying to prevent an incident like this from ever happening.

"[There was] a scuffle between a couple of guys, and one of them got sliced," said the manager, Jesse Blair. "We've been searching everybody that came in through the door. But it was a very small knife, and it got through."

The names of the people involved have not been released.

The suspect was arraigned this morning (July 25) on charges of assault with a deadly weapon.
