Thursday night’s stabbing at the parking lot of Sports Authority Field at Mile High Stadium apparently did not involve issues between Chargers and Broncos fans, according to the Denver Police Department.

In an video update posted on YouTube and linked through Twitter, Sgt. Steve Warneke explains that “it appears that this stems from a traffic altercation.” Warneke says that the suspects were backing out of a parking space and nearly struck the vehicle in which the victims were located.

The condition of the three victims has been upgraded. They have non-life threatening injuries. There still may be a fourth victim.

A 29-year-old man has been held for investigation of three counts of aggravated assault. Two other men have been released pending further investigation.
