FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Fresno police detectives are searching for the suspects involved in a deadly stabbing on Tuesday night in central Fresno.

Authorities have identified the man killed as 39-year-old Myron Reed. They believe he was homeless due to the fact he used the Poverello House as his address.

Police responded to a call at an apartment near N. Glenn and Belmont Aves. just before 9 p.m., where they say several people were involved in a fight.

Investigators say a fight broke out under a carport between a group of people when one of them was stabbed several times in the upper body.

The victim was rushed to Community Regional Medical Center, where he died an hour later.

Police are still looking for the suspects and have yet to release any descriptions.

Authorities were at the scene gathering evidence until the early morning hours.
