Witnesses at the scene say several people were involved in a fight when the manager was stabbed.

Police used surveillance video to determine Smith was the stabbing suspect.

Court records show Smith provided police with a statement and admitted to getting into a fight with McDonald's staff and stabbing one person. Smith also said he couldn't remember what he did with the knife after the assault.

Court records did not address the victim's condition.
