"PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — Police are investigating a double stabbing on California Avenue in Providence. Officers responded to the scene just after nine o’clock Saturday night."
The victim, later identified as Shawn McMurtery, 21, was applying pressure to the left side of his body, bleeding heavily from an apparent stab wound. He also had a laceration to his thumb.
McMurtery told police he was stabbed by a woman who was still inside the home.
When police went inside the home, they found large amounts of blood on the floors of several rooms in the home.
They then found a second victim, later identified as Haley Perez, 21, lying in the bathtub. She had a severe laceration to her right temple and several stab wounds to her back and abdomen area.
California Ave. is a block from Vermont Ave., where a man was shot last night. Two years later, this remains a very unsafe part of the city.
