On this date, 7-13-24, I was dispatched to the area of [REDACTED BY AGENCY] in reference to a subject that had been stabbed. When I arrived I made contact with the caller, [REDACTED], and the victim, [VICTIM #1]. [VICTIM #1] was bleeding heavily from his face/head area. I also witnessed what appeared to be two stab wounds near his wrist area on both arms. [REDACTED] advised that he witnessed [VICTIM #1] walking down the street and tried to assist him then he called 911.
I attempted to speak to [VICTIM #1] but due to him only speaking Spanish I was not able to communicate with him. Officer Sosa arrived and was able to get his name but [VICTIM #1] was not able to ascertain his birthday. Officer Sosa advised me that [VICTIM #1] said he was talking to girl at La Donna nightclub when he was struck in the head by a beer bottle. He advised that he did not know anything else. I could smell a strong odor of alcoholic beverage coming from his person while he was talking to Officer Sosa. [VICTIM #1] was transported to Hamilton Medical Center and I went to the bar to find out more information.
I made contact with the security guard, [REDACTED], who advised that there had not been any altercation at the bar tonight. I also went inside the bar and did not see any signs of any disturbance taking place. I was able to speak to the owner of the bar and look at video surveillance near the time of call. The video showed the victim come into the bar and restaurant area at 0134hrs. The victim is in the bar for only about two minutes when he exits with a female in a black shirt and red tinted hair. The female appeared to be caucasian in the video. It appeared the female was luring him to the apartment complex next door to the bar because she kept waving at him to follow her. Once the two leave the parking lot the video losing sight of them when they walk into the apartment complex parking lot.
Myself and other officers then searched the area of the apartment complex to attempt to find the crime scene. Officer Sosa was able to find a large blood trail outside apartment [REDACTED BY AGENCY] while we were searching the area the occupant of the apartment, [WITNESS #1], came outside. She advised that around the call time she heard a loud physical altercation outside her apartment. She came outside and saw two males going down the staircase on the eastside of the building. She advised that a bigger male was pushing a smaller Hispanic male down the stairs. She said that as they were going down the steps the suspect looked behind him at her and she saw that he was wearing a bandana over the lower half of his face. She was not sure if the suspect was black or Hispanic. She advised that she then witnessed the suspect go to a silver SUV nearby that was parked on 4th Ave and the victim began walking eastbound on Lake St.
The scene was secured and when CID arrived it was turned over to them.
