A suspect wanted for a stabbing at a Long Beach gay bar has been arrested, three days after one of his alleged victims died from his wounds, reports ktla.com.
Long Beach police detectives arrested 56-year-old Michael Smalls of Long Beach at an undisclosed location Tuesday.
Police believe Smalls is the assailant who stabbed and killed Christopher Finley, a 28-year-old resident of Long Beach, following an argument at Mineshaft on the 1700 block of East Broadway late last Friday night.
At this time, investigators do not believe the killing of Finley was a hate-motivated attack.
