“There was some sort of altercation that led up to the stabbing,” police spokesman Jose Hernandez said, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Hernandez told the Sun that a few intoxicated fans started a shoving match that ended in a “crazy melee.”

The police are still looking for suspects. Two people were taken into custody and then released after police determined they were not involved in the fight, according to the Sun.

JB and KG were forced to end the band’s 90-minute set between 30 minutes and 45 minutes early.

The following Steel Panther event was canceled and the venue was closed for the rest of the night, according to Las Vegas’ KLAS-TV.
