\n\tA victim lost their life, and two others sustained injuries, in a stabbing that took place outside Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Va., during Phish<\/a>\u2018s performance at the venue Friday night (Sept. 19). <\/p>\n

\n\tOfficers responded to an altercation that had escalated into violence on Coliseum Drive just after 9:30 p.m. ET, according to a police report from the Hampton Police Division<\/a>. The suspect fled, but detectives \u201cidentified all parties involved\u201d and determined it \u201cappears to be an isolated incident,\u201d says the report published on Saturday.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMembers from the Hampton Division of Fire and Rescue responded to the scene and rendered medical assistance,\u201d Cpl. Shaun Stalnaker writes. \u201cThe first victim was transported to a local hospital, where he later succumbed to his injuries. The second victim was also transported and is currently receiving medical treatment. A third adult male victim later arrived at a local hospital as a walk-in, also suffering from a laceration determined to be non-life-threatening.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tPhish addressed the tragedy on Saturday in a statement the band posted on social media<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cDuring last night\u2019s 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\u2019t 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,\u201d the band said.<\/p>\n

\n\tPhish\u2019s Saturday and Sunday night concerts in Hampton, which wrap their summer tour, were set to go on as scheduled. Lead singer\/guitarist Trey Anastasio\u2019s solo band has gigs slated for this fall before Phish takes the stage together again for their traditional run of New Year\u2019s Eve shows<\/a> at New York City\u2019s Madison Square Garden, where they\u2019ve booked a four-show series spanning the dates of Dec. 28-31. <\/p>\n
