Oakland police are investigating a stabbing outside the Coliseum after the A's game ended Thursday afternoon.

At about 4 p.m. Thursday, the police department was notified of a stabbing victim who checked into a hospital in a neighboring city, police said. When officers arrived at the hospital, the victim told them the stabbing took place in the 7000 block of Coliseum Way.

The victim was treated for their injury at the hospital, police said. They did not elaborate on the victim's condition.
