LOCAL : Placentia Man Stabbed to Death
A Placentia man was fatally stabbed Sunday night, apparently after an argument with a man he knew, police said.
Anaheim Police Lt. Marc Hedgpeth said police found Reynaldo Luna, 20, unconscious with a stab wound in his chest when they arrived outside an apartment complex in the 1700 block of North Temple Street about 6:45 p.m.
Paramedics treated Luna at the scene, then took him to UCI Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. Hedgpeth said Armando Gutierrez, 18, of Anaheim was arrested near the apartment complex and booked for suspicion of murder.
Hedgpeth said the two men appeared to have known each other.
Gutierrez was taken to Anaheim’s temporary detention facility, where he is expected to stay until his arraignment Tuesday. Bail was set at $250,000.
