By Lookout Staff August 1, 2022 -- A fatal stabbing Friday in courtyard of the Main Library involving two homeless men marked the first homicide in Santa Monica this year.
The suspect fled before officers arrived, according to police. The victim succumbed to his injuries at the scene. Both victim and suspect are homeless. The incident took place a little more than one year after another stabbing took place four blocks away ("Downtown Stabbing Marks Year's First Homicide," June 22, 2021). In that incident, the suspect was arrested near the Main Library. Anyone who has additional information concerning the incident should call Detective Nicole Murphy at 310-458-8941 or email Nicole.Murphy@santamonica.gov. They can also call criminal Investigations at 310-458-8451, or the Watch Commander (24 hours) at 310-458-2249. |
