MINNEAPOLIS — A man died in the hospital after being stabbed multiple times at a party in Minneapolis, police said. 

According to officials, officers responded to a stabbing in a home in the 3400 block of North Penn Avenue around 3:15 Sunday morning. Police found 31-year-old Troy Dean Friend of Minneapolis suffering from multiple stab wounds.
