Just after 12:30 a.m. on Sunday, officers and members from the Tucson Fire Department responded to the RTC for a report of an injured man on the ground. 

As authorities arrived, they found Lundberg near a bus bench with obvious signs of trauma.

Detectives say other people were in the area at the time of the stabbing and may have seen what happened.
