Police responded then to the newer parking garage for a fight involving 15 to 20 people, police said. The fight dispersed prior to officers arriving, but the victim soon arrived at Saratoga Hospital with a stab wound to his abdomen, police said.

Police described the victim’s injury as non-life-threatening.

The investigation soon determined that the group involved was well-known to each other and that the stabbing was not a random act, police said.

Kilburn was arraigned and released to return to court later.
