CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas \u2014 A suspect is now in custody in connection with a fatal stabbing near Everhart Road that left a 19-year-old man dead last week.<\/p>\n
The Corpus Christi Police Department confirmed Friday morning that 20-year-old Angel Hernandez has been arrested and charged with murder. Hernandez was also served with a warrant charging him with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.<\/p>\n
Police said Hernandez and the victim, 19-year-old Hugo Briseno, were known to each other.<\/p>\n
The arrest comes one week after officers responded to the 4600 block of Everhart Road around 1:41 a.m. on May 29 following reports of a stabbing.<\/p>\n
Investigators said two men had already been taken to a local hospital with stab wounds before officers arrived. Briseno later died from his injuries. A second victim survived.<\/p>\n
According to police, the incident began with a disturbance at a nearby business. Those involved were separated and left the area before a second confrontation broke out in a nearby parking lot.<\/p>\n
It was during that second altercation that the two men were stabbed, investigators said.<\/p>\n
Detectives with the department’s Robbery\/Homicide Unit took over the investigation and interviewed several people. Police previously said the individuals involved were acquainted with one another.<\/p>\n
The investigation remains ongoing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Police said 20-year-old Angel Hernandez is charged with murder in the stabbing death of 19-year-old Hugo Briseno near…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":324519,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[155,157,156],"class_list":["post-324518","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-corpus-christi","tag-corpus-christi","tag-corpus-christi-headlines","tag-corpus-christi-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/324518","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=324518"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/324518\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/324519"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=324518"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=324518"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=324518"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
