Who is the person!?
A stab would in the neck is extremely serious! The name of the victim has not been made public.
If the guy the police picked up was found by the stabbed victim, I bet he was covered with blood. A stab wound to the neck just gushes out blood, almost as bad as wound to the head! Poor guy!
Why no more information on this victim? No name! Who was he? What were the circumstances? Robbery? Victim and assailant knew each other?
