Tragic Frat Fight
Fraternity Dispute Ends In Deadly Knife Fight
SAN JOSE, Calif. -- A 23-year-old man is dead and several others stabbed after a massive street fight between two college fraternities in San Jose.
According to police, at least 50 people were involved in the fight, which apparently started as a dispute between the two groups Monday. Police believe the two groups decided to settle their differences at Flickinger Park in the Berryessa neighborhood of San Jose at midnight.
Investigators are interviewing between 30 to 40 people who were involved to figure out what happened. Several arrests have also reportedly been made, but officials have not been able to provide many details.
The dead man was later identified as Alam Kim of Los Altos. It was his 23rd birthday Wednesday.
The men were members of San Jose State's Pi Alpha Phi and Lambda Phi Epsilon fraternities. Pi Alpha Phi members from the nearby University of California, Santa Cruz also participated, Unger told the Associated Press.
The altercation apparently grew from a disagreement at a pool hall on Monday. The exact nature of the dispute was not immediately known, but it escalated to egg throwing and, eventually, the brawl, police said.
Several people were taken to hospitals by friends, Unger said. Besides the man who died, three people were treated for stab wounds and one for head trauma.
Dozens of fraternity members and witnesses were being questioned at police headquarters. No arrests were immediately made.
