BOSTON (AP) – Two Loyola University students attending classes at Boston College because of Hurricane Katrina were stabbed on a Boston street early Wednesday morning.

Joseph Vairo, 19, was in serious condition at Beth Israel Hospital after being stabbed twice, Boston College spokesman Jack Dunn said. An unidentified 20-year-old was treated and released. Vairo is originally from Holden.

The students – among 150 from Loyola and Tulane University who are temporarily attending Boston College – got into an argument with five men at 1:30 a.m. outside a Store 24 in Cleveland Circle, police said.

They walked away, but were attacked moments later, police and Dunn said. Police said there have been no arrests.

Police said witnesses were being interviewed.
