Police released descriptions and surveillance footage Thursday of two men who allegedly stabbed a San Jose State University football player early Sunday morning in downtown San Jose.
The stabbing was reported around 1 a.m. Sunday at Post and South First streets.
The victim, identified by SJSU officials as Vallejo native Chad Miller, was taken to a hospital.
The junior safety and communications major was expected to recover as of Monday, but hospital officials did not immediately return a request for his updated condition Thursday evening.
According to investigators, a Hispanic man in his 20s brandished a knife at Miller during an argument.
A fight then broke out between two groups of people, police said. Between 15 and 20 people were involved in the fight.
