RALEIGH, N.C. — A 16-year-old Durham boy was stabbed during a fight with other teens at the North Carolina State Fair Saturday night, fair spokesman Brian Long said.

Jaylan O'Quinn McNair was stabbed in the back in an open area between the midway and Dorton Arena around 10 p.m., Long said.

McNair was treated for non-life-threatening injuries at WakeMed, then released early Sunday.

Long said the stabbing appears to have been "an isolated incident between teenagers who had a disagreement."

The Wake County Sheriff's Office is investigating. No arrests have been made.
