One person was transported to a hospital in Syracuse after being stabbed in the neck and two others were treated for injuries at the Cortland Regional Medical Center for "cuts" they received during the incident.

Director of Campus Police Beau Saul said all the people have been released from the hospital.

Officials initially said two knives were used during the incident. One was found in a hospital bathroom where the people were treated and another was found on one of the injured people.

All four people have been banned from campus, though two people who lived in residence halls were allowed to collect their belongings.

Police have not released the names others involved in the incident.

Saul said, however, "We expect more arrests."
