Officers responded around 12:30 p.m. to reports of a stabbing at the Planet Fitness and found a male employee suffering from multiple stab wounds, police said. He was rushed to a trauma center with life-threatening injuries. No updates on his current condition were immediately provided.

Investigators said the attack followed an altercation between the employee and Massey, who had been banned from the gym.

Another told the station that "all the employees are nice" and "uplifting."

"It's a little shocking for something to happen right here," he said.

Authorities said bail was denied, and Massey is being held at the Montgomery County Correctional Facility pending further court proceedings.

The investigation remains ongoing.
