A gang fight in Salt Lake City ended with two men taken to hospitals early Saturday.

Around 1 a.m., several members of one gang showed up at an address near 900 S. Gale St. looking for a woman, but a fight ensued when rival gang members showed up, said Salt Lake City Police Lt. Steve White.

One man was stabbed eight times and was taken to Intermountain Medical Center, in Murray, in critical condition. Another man was hit by a car during the fight and was later taken to University Hospital in fair condition. Three men were booked into jail, White said, adding that officers were still investigating the fight.
