A witness tells FOX 47 the 18-year-old victim was stabbed in his neck and abdomen.
"It looked like the guy just took it and stabbed him and wouldn't stop," said one witness. "When you see something like that and you see all that gore, it's definitely going to make you not want to go to another one of those parties."
The witness says almost 500 cars were trying to leave the field at the same time.
Details regarding a suspect were not immediately available however deputies say the suspect did flee the scene.
The witness says they hope for justice.
"I'm really hoping they find out who it is," the witness said. "I think its really terrible, he was only 18 years old, he had so much going for him and because somebody wanted to be stupid at a party."
According to an event page, a "Big Michigan Project X Party" was scheduled for June 16 at 4649 Fishville Road in Grass Lake. The party was scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. A Facebook page for the event has since been deleted.
