The Fairfield County incident happened at around 3:30 a.m. Monday, Dec. 25, at a Stamford home on Crystal Street.
Stamford Police said a fight occurred outside the home during a party and the victim was stabbed multiple times.
Partygoers then drove the man to Stamford Hospital, where he underwent emergency surgery. Despite their efforts, the man died from his injuries, police said.
Authorities have not released the man's name or hometown.
Roughly 20 minutes after police learned of the stabbing, officers spotted 22-year-old Beimar Araujo-Ramirez walking “recklessly” downtown along Broad Street, police said.
He told investigators that he and the victim were both at the party when a fight broke out, and that he and others had dropped the man off in front of the hospital’s entrance.
“The circumstances surrounding this fight and the injuries that led to the death of the victim remain under investigation,” Stamford Police said.
Araujo-Ramirez was arrested on suspicion of disorderly conduct for alleged actions toward the two party hosts, police said.
No charges have been filed in connection with the stabbing.
Anyone with information in the case is asked to contact the Stamford Police Department at 203-977-4417.
