28-Year-Old Stabbed To Death Inside Cleveland Apartment

CLEVELAND — A 28-year-old man was found stabbed to death in his apartment on Cleveland's west side. Police said they have taken one suspect into custody.

On Monday afternoon, Cleveland police were called to an apartment on W. 112th Street. Officers were sent to investigate reports of a dead body found in an apartment.

When police arrived, they entered the apartment and found the 28-year-old inside. He had been stabbed multiple times. He was declared dead on the scene.

Investigators believe the 28-year-old lived in the apartment with two other people. The man's two roommates were in an argument earlier on Monday, resulting in one of the roommates being punched in the face and then leaving the apartment, police said.

When that roommate returned, they found the 28-year-old stabbed to death inside.

Police said the third roommate was taken into custody in the area of E. 79th and Kinsman Road. The stabbing is still under investigation, a Cleveland police spokesperson said.

Members of the Cleveland police homicide unit and the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's office took part in the investigation.
