Hemet Eye News - Press Release on Weston Park Stabbing

On June 17th at approximately 11:23 PM, The Hemet Police Department received a 911 call of a possible Stabbing at Weston Park (700 E Florida Ave.) Upon arrival, officers located a 45 year old Hispanic male down in the park, suffering from multiple stab wounds. Witnesses told officers that the incident had begun as a property dispute between two females.  During the argument the victim and another male adult joined the dispute.  The argument eventually turned physical and at some point the suspect produced a knife and stabbed the victim multiple times before fleeing the area.  The investigation eventually led to the detention of a 21 year old male as a possible suspect at a residence a few blocks from the crime scene.
