A fight between two men in a Beverly Hills alley on Sunday night turned into a deadly stabbing, according to police.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It happened at around 11:40 p.m. in an alley in the 400 block of N. Palm Drive, just south of Beverly Boulevard, where officers said they were called for reports of an altercation, a news release from the Beverly Hills Police Department said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Arriving officers found a man “suffering from a neck wound.” He was treated at the scene and taken to a local hospital, where he was later pronounced dead, the news release said. He has not yet been identified.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Police told CBS LA on Monday that one of the two men involved in the fight produced a knife and a stabbing occurred.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The other man, 19-year-old Conoray Lawantara, was also hospitalized for injuries sustained during the incident.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Late Monday, police said that they arrested Lawantara on suspicion of murder based on evidence detectives discovered during their investigation into what led up to the fight.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“His arraignment date will be determined at a later time … as he remains in the hospital due to an injury,” police said.<\/p>\n
Police said they believe the incident is isolated and that there was no one else involved.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“Our detectives are conducting a thorough and diligent investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding this tragic incident,” said a statement from Beverly Hills Chief of Police Max Subin.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Anyone who knows more was asked to contact BHPD at 310-285-2125.\u00a0<\/p>\n
