He began yelling for help.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Security guards and police officers went over to assist him. Local police and casino security guards gave him initial emergency treatment. EMTs arrived and the victim was taken for medical attention at a local hospital. He is expected to survive, the Elk Grove Police Department said in a Facebook post.<\/p>\n<p>Singh was located by officers near the car and detained, police said. He also received treatment at a hospital for a cut on his face.<\/p>\n<div class=\"callout\">\n<p>Singh later was arrested for attempted murder, according to online jail records. He was booked at 6:10 a.m. on Friday and was being held without bail this weekend at the Sacramento County Jail.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Singh is scheduled to appear in local court on Tuesday, jail records said.<\/p>\n<p>The brothers drove to the tribal gaming property together. They spent about two hours in the car. The duo never entered the casino.<\/p>\n<p>The stabbing took place after the younger brother started to drive the car about the parking lot. It was unclear what the argument was over.<\/p>\n<p>Singh\u2019s brother allegedly threatened Singh during the argument, police said. Then, the slashing occurred.<\/p>\n<p>The casino\u2019s parking lot has security cameras, the <em>Elk Grove Citizen, <\/em>a local newspaper reported. It is unclear if the stabbing and dispute were captured on video.<\/p>\n<p>Security guards at the casino routinely are assisted by troopers assigned to the California Highway Patrol and police officers at nearby local departments.<\/p>\n<h2>Casino Recently Opened<\/h2>\n<p>Sky River Casino opened on August 15.
