Man Killed in Stabbing at Busch Stadium After Dodgers-Cardinals Game

One person died in an early Monday stabbing at Busch Stadium during a fight between two third-party contractors cleaning up after Sunday's Dodgers-Cardinals game.

St. Louis police responded just after 2:40 a.m. to a report of a cutting at the ballpark. Officers found 27-year-old Arrin Jones of Riverview, Missouri, with fatal wounds. A 65-year-old man remained at the scene after the stabbing, police said.

The Cardinals described the event as an isolated altercation. St. Louis police spokesman Mitch McCoy said the incident could have happened anywhere. He called it a dispute between two people that unfortunately took place at a treasured St. Louis landmark.

The Cardinals issued a statement: "We are aware of an isolated altercation that occurred between two on-site contracted individuals during the overnight hours on Monday morning. St. Louis Metropolitan Police were dispatched to investigate and our security team is cooperating with the department in its investigation."

The statement added: "The safety and security of our fans, guests and employees remains our highest priority and we are confident our stadium security measures were in no way compromised last night. Any additional inquiries into this incident and investigation should be directed to the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department."
