The story tells us where the stabber lives, but fails to tell us where the fight actually took place. if it was in my neighborhood, I'd like to know.
Oh, and just to be fair couldn't we get the stabee's address too? Slim reporting...sheesh

Give the cops credit for knowing a lot more about the incident than is reported here. Also, give the DA a chance to look at the reports and issue an actual, formal charge.

Actually, not all charges of homicide/murder require proof of intent to kill.

However, an ATTEMPT to do so would require such proof.

These two are the dishwashers at the Wedge....Both no shows Saturday AM....swell

Reports says both can get real mean and they like to drink.

I hope they both get some help.

carlitosway, any charge of murder requires proving an intent to kill. It is not an all-purpose charge for any lurid result of a fight.

substantial battery ? repeatedly stab someone and this is all he gets charged with "come on" that is attempted murder IMO.
