Man Stabbed To Death In San Jose

SAN JOSE (CBS SF) -- A 22-year-old man was stabbed to death in San Jose early Sunday morning, possibly after a fight, police said.

Police were called to the area of Almaden Avenue and Union Street shortly after 1:30 a.m. on a report of a fight, Sgt. Jason Dwyer said.

While responding to that call, a second call came in reporting a man calling for help on the 200 block of West Virginia Street.

Officers responded to the second location to find a man unconscious on the sidewalk with at least one stab wound.

The man was transported to Valley Medical Center but succumbed to his injuries at 2:33 a.m.

Police have no suspects in the stabbing and have not yet determined a motive. They believe the first report of a fight is related to the stabbing.

The stabbing is San Jose's 37th murder of 2011.
