Two 19-year-old men were found with stab wounds on John Street in Bradford, early on Sunday morning
A man has been stabbed to death and another is in a critical but stable condition after a fight involving "a large group".
Two 19-year-old men were found with stab wounds after police were called to John Street, Bradford, shortly after 05:45 BST on Sunday.
A 16-year-old boy and a 26-year-old man have been held on suspicion of murder and attempted murder respectively, West Yorkshire Police said.
Both men remain in custody.
Det Ch Insp Marc Bowes said: "This is an absolutely devastating incident and a significant police operation and investigation is underway to identify and arrest those responsible."
"This has happened in a prominent location in Bradford city centre and, while the area is generally quieter at the time of the day that this incident has happened, there will have been people around," he said.
"Our understanding from initial calls to the police is that there was a large group fighting and a number of these people will be significant witnesses and we would urge them to make themselves known."
Detectives said there would be "a significant police operation" at the scene
