Authorities have identified two men killed in a stabbing attack in an apartment on Chicago's southwest side.

Chicago police say at least three others were injured on Saturday night in the city's Little Village neighborhood.

The Cook County medial examiner says those killed were 18-year-old Rafael Villagrana and Landa Ramirez, who was in his 30s. Both were from Chicago. Police were called to the apartment after 9 p.m. and found the two men dead. Both had stab wounds to the head, chest and neck.

Two of the injured victims had stab wounds on their hands, which authorities say they suffered while trying to defend themselves from an attacker.

The third injured man was transported to Mount Sinai hospital.
