Oct 30, 2012, 11:29 AM | Updated: 11:47 am

Police have arrested a 22-year-old Renton man suspected of fatally stabbing another man outside a Seattle night club Friday night.

The 21-year-old victim was with his girlfriend around 2:00 am Friday when he got into an argument with four men outside Tia Lou’s at 1st Ave. and Bell Street, police say.

As the pair walked to their car, one of the men stabbed him in the stomach in a parking lot. The suspect took off in a light-colored truck.

The victim later died from his wounds.

Detectives are still looking for more suspects. Police have received some video of the suspects and are asking for more footage.

The stabbing was the 25th homicide in Seattle in 2012, which is five more than all of 2011.
