Police say three people have been hospitalized after they were stabbed early today at a party in southwest Las Vegas.

Metro Police Officer Michael Rodriguez says the fight involving at least four men broke out on Tara Avenue around 3 a.m.

Rodriguez says one man hit a 38-year-old man in the head with a barbecue grill, who then retaliated by stabbing his 17-year-old son and two other men, each 20 years old.

Police say the older man later drove his son to the hospital but the fighting continued in the lobby.

Police arrested the father on suspicion of battery with a deadly weapon. Two of the victims were treated for minor cuts, and the other underwent surgery and was in stable condition, police said.

Rodriguez did not have details about what prompted the fight or the identities of those involved.
