A Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office spokesperson said medics airlifted the victim to HCA Florida Kendall Hospital to be treated for “several stab wounds,” describing his condition as “stable.”

Authorities haven’t publicly identified anyone involved nor said whether the men knew each other prior to the altercation.
