Man Held After Machete Attack
A machete attack on a supervisor at a Tustin firm may have been prompted by his discussion of a worker’s job performance, police said.
Police arrested Arnold G. Duncan, 34, address unknown, shortly after he allegedly attacked his supervisor, Richard Reid, 36, of Huntington Beach, inside Truesdail Laboratories Inc., 14201 Franklin Ave. in Tustin, a police spokesman said.
Reid, who was struck several times, was taken to Healthcare Medical Center of Tustin with moderate injuries, police said.
Duncan was arrested at Truesdail Laboratories and is being held at Orange County Jail on suspicion of attempted murder, police said.
