A Long Branch man is in critical condition after being stabbed “numerous times” on Red Bank’s West Side early this morning, police said in statement.

No arrests have been made after Ja’Sheem Eyem-Supreme Allah, also known as Sean Stovall, 38, was assaulted and stabbed in an altercation in the parking lot of the Bates Lodge on Shrewsbury Avenue just after midnight, police said.

The incident occurred after a party at the lodge, Captain Darren McConnell told redbankgreen. He did not say how many suspects police are searching for.

When police arrived on the scene, McConnell said Stovall was critically injured, lying in the parking lot.

“The scene was not what we consider out of control,” he said, adding that there were several witnesses.

Police had initially searched for a sports car — likely a blue Ford Mustang — that had left the scene, but McConnell said he’s not sure if the people in the car were involved.

Here’s the full text of RBPD’s statement:
