Montgomery County police said it happened around 12:30 p.m. Wednesday on University Boulevard and Amherst Avenue.

The stabbing occurred after a fight broke out between two men on a Metrobus. The two got off the bus before one man stabbed the other and ran away, according to officials.

Officers are looking for the suspect and have shut down a portion of Amherst Avenue, from University Boulevard West to Reedie Drive, for their investigation.

The victim was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead.
