A man was stabbed during a fight early Saturday at a CTA train station in Dearborn Park, Chicago police said.

The man, 40, was in a fight with a male about 4:40 a.m. on the platform of the Roosevelt station in the 1100 block of South State Street when he was stabbed in the back, police said.

He was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in fair condition, officials said.

No one was in custody.
