San Diego homicide investigators arrested three suspects in a violent street fight that led to the death of a man described as a “happy-go-lucky” kid.
A 23-year-old man who lived on Ridgeview Drive in the Webster area of San Diego, died early Thursday as a result of several stab wounds to his torso, officials said.
The young man was a sweet, nice guy, neighbor Mitchell Vassilou told NBC 7.
“He helps me all the time. I do yard work or in my back yard,” Vassilou said. “Boy, he picks up stuff fast. He was just, just a nice kid.”
A fight broke out on the street between a group of men and women at approximately 11 p.m. Wednesday, San Diego police said.
Someone called 911 from the neighborhood located just north of State Route 94 and east of Interstate 805.
However, when officers arrived, they found the victim bleeding in the road. He was rushed to Mercy Hospital where he was pronounced dead hours later.
Officials said they don’t have a number of how many people were involved in the fight or what may have prompted the incident.
