A man died Thursday after he was stabbed multiple times at an apartment building in downtown Atlanta’s Hotel District, authorities said.

Officers responded to a stabbing call at the MAA Centennial Olympic Park apartments just after 2 a.m., Atlanta police said. At the scene, police found a man suffering from multiple stab wounds, but officials did not say if he was inside the apartment building or on the street.

The victim, who was later identified as 31-year-old Tracy Cole, was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, where he died from his wounds, police said. A homicide investigation was opened, but police did not release further details about the incident or say if any suspects had been identified.
