Andrew Hazelton died early Sunday as a result of the incident.
PHILADELPHIA -- A stabbing inside an Old City bar early Saturday left a Camden County man dead as a result of injuries sustained during the incident.
Andrew Hazelton, 33, of Blackwood, was at the Bleu Martini bar at 2nd and Market streets when an argument broke out, according to police, who said in an incident report that Hazelton was stabbed in the neck.
Hazelton was out with five women when an argument between those at his table and patrons seated nearby broke out. A man seated at that table allegedly stabbed Hazelton, who ran outside and was later transported to Jefferson University Hospital, where he died just after 1 p.m. Sunday.

The man, whose identity was not released, was arrested by police. It's not clear what type of object was brandished during the argument, but media reports say the man detained by authorities has been charged and that the incident remains under investigation.
Philly.com reports that the stabbing brings the city's homicide total for the year to 181 people. Late last month, a 24-year-old Lindenwold man out with friends at Cavanaugh's River Deck was fatally shot following an argument inside the night club.
