A man suffered minor injuries after an early Sunday morning fight and stabbing on the Strip, police said.

During the fight, Rogers said, the man jumped into Caesars Palace’s fountain.

The man was taken to the University Medical Center with minor injuries; he was treated and released. He wouldn’t tell police what started the fight, Rogers said.
