The victim was stabbed on the train and later died in the hospital. Three suspects are sought in the investigation.
Investigators said Thursday they do not believe it was a random attack.
Later in the investigation, detectives learned the victim boarded the Metro Rail outside Long Beach city limits. At some point after the train entered Long Beach, three male suspects approached the victim as soon as they boarded and began physically assaulting him. Authorities said one of the suspects produced a knife and stabbed the victim multiple times. When the train stopped near 1st Street and Pine Avenue, the suspects ran away from the scene.
