A person is dead after a second violent incident in less than a month at the iconic Kowloon Restaurant on Route 1 in Saugus.

Less than two weeks after the now-infamous “Thanksgiving Eve Brawl” went viral and led to the arrests of four people, authorities say the Saugus Police Department again responded there on Saturday night and found the victim in the parking lot.

“Authorities are investigating a fatal incident in Saugus Saturday evening,” Essex County District
Attorney Paul Tucker and Saugus Police Chief Michael Ricciardelli announced in a release. “The victim was found with a knife wound in the parking lot of Kowloon Restaurant, 948 Broadway, Saugus, after 9:00 p.m.”

The victim, who has not been identified, was rushed to Mass General Hospital, where they “pronounced deceased a short time later,” according to the DA.

More information is expected to be provided after noon on Sunday, according to authorities.

The fatal stabbing is the second violent incident at the Kowloon to make headlines in recent weeks, after a brawl there the night before Thanksgiving took the internet by storm, ultimately leading to charges for three men and a woman.

Last week, the Saugus Police Department announced charges against:

32-year old Rosaria Sophia McCauly of North Reading — two counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon (to wit glass bottle) and disorderly conduct.
19-year-old Arnold John Carey Marujo of Somerville — procuring liquor to someone less than 21 and disorderly conduct.
19-year-old Donovan Clark of Lynn — procuring liquor to someone less than 21, disorderly conduct and assault and battery.
35-year-old Anthony John Micelli of North Reading — assault and battery and disorderly conduct.

After the brawl, the Saugus Board of Selectmen told the Herald they are anticipating a police report about the incident. The police department serves as the liquor agent for the Board of Selectmen, which issues the liquor licenses in town.

“We are expecting a report from the Police Department, and the Board will then consider its options at that time, depending on the findings of the report,” Selectmen Vice Chair Jeffrey Cicolini said earlier this week. “Although the events that took place are unfortunate, a fight in a restaurant or bar does not in itself constitute a violation of a liquor license.”
