Police are looking for at least three people after a 14-year-old boy was stabbed in Glendale.

The incident happened around 11:30 p.m. Friday at a home near Bethany Home Road and Grand Avenue.

Glendale police said a fight had broken out between two men, a woman and the teenager. At some point, one of the adults stabbed the teen. They then fled the scene.

Glendale first responders transported Elijah Ochoa-Gamez to the hospital, where he died from his injuries.

Ochoa-Gamez’s family allowed police to release the teen’s name to aid in the investigation.

The suspects were described as follows:

Suspect 1: White or Hispanic male in his 20s or 30s, curly dark brown hair, possible scar under left eye, and about 5 feet 6 inches tall with average build. He was riding a BMX-style bicycle.

Suspect 2: White male in his 20s or 30s, blonde hair, light-colored goatee, possible tattoos on right arm, and about 6 feet tall with thin build.

Suspect 3: White or Hispanic female in her 30s, dark hair, average build, tattoos on both arms.

Police said a white pit bull with spots was used in the attack on the boy.
