SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Police are searching for two men in the fatal stabbing of a Chicago man early Saturday morning in downtown Salt Lake City.

Investigators say 33-year-old Joaquin Gonzalez was in a vehicle with a woman when they were approached by two men.

The two men immediately started a fight with Gonzalez and he was stabbed multiple times.

The woman, who escaped unharmed, tried to help Gonzalez but he died at the scene.

The only description police have of the suspects is that both were wearing dark, hooded sweatshirts and one of them had a black beanie.

The 1:20 a.m. stabbing is under investigation.
