> Metro Police are investigating a gang-related stabbing at a hookah lounge early Sunday morning that sent one man to University Medical Center, where security officers fought off gang members trying to get to the victim, officials said.
> 
> Police officers were called to the 6800 block of Spring Mountain Road — near Spring Valley High School in the western valley — about 4 a.m. on a report of a stabbing that occurred inside a hookah lounge, police said. Responding officers found employees cleaning up the crime scene upon arrival, police said.
> 
> The stabbing victim arrived shortly thereafter to UMC Trauma Center, where he was treated for a "life-threatening" stab wound to the torso, police said.
> 
> At about 4:30 a.m. several alleged gang members tried to get inside the hospital, but were thwarted by hospital security officers, police said. The assailants are still at large, police said.
> 
> The gang-related incident is unrelated to a stabbing that occurred earlier Saturday night that cut short a Tenacious D concert at the House of Blues, police said.
> 
> A brawl broke out in the tightly packed crowd at the Las Vegas Strip venue, resulting in two people being transported to UMC with stab wounds that were nonlife-threatening.
> 
> The incident caused Tenacious D — a rock-comedy troupe led by comedian Jack Black — to end the scheduled 90-minute show after about 45 minutes. Police are still investigating the stabbings and the assailants are still at large, officials said.
> 
> Anyone with information about the incidents can leave an anonymous tip with Crime Stoppers at 385-5555 or Crime Stoppers of Nevada.
