A man accused of stabbing his housemate to death last year has been indicted on murder charges in connection with the case.
Fredy Gonzalez, 21, was indicted last week on charges of murder, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose and unlawful possession of a weapon in connection with the death of 24-year-old Raul Cruz.
Around 12:30 a.m. on September 29, 2013, a witness called police and reported a stabbing inside a house in the 800 block of South Clinton Avenue. When police arrived on-scene, they found Cruz suffering from a stab wound to the chest caused by a large kitchen knife. People who lived in the house with Cruz were restraining Gonzalez and accused him of the stabbing.
Cruz later died from his injuries at Capital Health Regional Medical Center.
Gonzalez remains in jail on $1 million bail.
