CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) - A 55-year-old man has been charged in the fatal stabbing of another man in Cambridge, officials said Thursday.
Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan’s office said Jose Bermudez was arrested Thursday and charged with murder and aggravated assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.
He is accused of killing 33-year-old Danilo Perez on April 14. Authorities said the two were both homeless and knew each other and got into a verbal argument before Bermudez stabbed Perez multiple times. Prosecutors say Perez fled and was later pronounced dead at the hospital.
Bermudez has been ordered held without bail. Bermudez’s attorney, Eduardo Masferrer, said they are reviewing the allegations and will be reviewing video evidence.
