The suspect’s wife told her husband to stop the commotion but he became angry and physically abusive.
Lee said, “The victim asked the suspect to stop beating his wife but he refused to do so and stabbed the victim several times in the back.”
A 50-year-old room tenant witnessed the incident and heard a scream.
Along with the suspect’s wife, the witness tried to stop the man but she was also cut by the knife and sustained injuries to her arm.
