San Diego police investigating fatal downtown stabbing, suspect found dead
SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — The San Diego Police Department says a man was killed and a security guard was injured in a stabbing Saturday night at the Grande South complex downtown, and the man they believe was the suspect was found dead the following morning.
Officers responded to a call about a man and woman arguing at the condos located at 1199 Pacific Highway in the Core Columbia neighborhood around 11:15 p.m. Saturday. Roughly 10 minutes later, police received another call about a stabbing in the complex’s parking garage, the press release says.
When first responders arrived on the scene, they found a man suffering from multiple stab wounds to his chest and head. They also found a security guard who was stabbed in his arm and a woman with bruises on her head.
Paramedics scrambled to give medical attention to the man with serious stabbing injuries, but he died at the scene despite their best efforts, SDPD says.
The security guard and woman were taken to a hospital in the area to receive treatment for their injuries, and they were released shortly after.
SDPD’s homicide unit responded to the stabbing, and they learned the man who died and the woman who was hurt were married and involved in a domestic violence situation that led to neighbors calling the police.
SDPD says officers learned the suspect knew the couple, and during the incident, “an argument erupted” between the men about the relationship the stabber had with the victim’s wife.
“During that argument, the victim went to the parking garage to confront the male while the female flagged down a security guard at the complex to intervene,” SDPD’s press release states. “In the parking garage, a fight broke out between the victim and suspect in which the security guard attempted to intervene.”
During the fight the suspect stabbed the victim several times and the security guard once in the arm. Police say the suspect then left the scene of the crime in a car.
At about 8:30 a.m. Sunday, someone called SDPD to report a vehicle parked partially on a sidewalk near Dairy Mart Road and Vita Lane in San Ysidro that appeared to have a bullet hole in the rear window.
Officers responded and found a dead man in the car with an apparent self-inflicted single gunshot wound to the head, SDPD says.
“That male was confirmed to be the suspect in the homicide that occurred earlier in the evening. The preliminary investigation indicates the suspect’s death is a suicide. There are no outstanding suspects,” the press release states.
SDPD’s homicide unit processed the scene for evidence, worked to find surveillance video and tried to find witnesses in the area.
The man who was killed has been identified, and SDPD described him as a 64-year-old white man. His wife is a 62-year-old white woman. The security guard who was injured was a 27-year-old Black man.
The suspect was a 58-year-old white man, according to police.
The identities of the dead victim and suspect are being withheld until their families are notified, SDPD says.
If you have information for police about this stabbing, reach out to the homicide unit at 619-531-2293 or call Crime Stoppers at 888-580-8477.

Here’s a college football story via the Associated Press:
The ebb and flow of the college football season hits a low this week if measured by the number of Top 25 matchups.
The only one is No. 9 Missouri at No. 25 Texas A&M, the fewest since there were no ranked teams pitted against each other during Week 3 last season.
Maybe it’s karma for the weekend we enjoyed last week. Bookending it were the Miami-Virginia Tech did-he-catch-it-or-not ending and that fantastic Alabama-Georgia finish.
Of course, there still are important games this week besides the Southeastern Conference showdown in College Station, Texas.
No. 12 Mississippi, upset by Kentucky at home, is in bounce-back mode on the road against a South Carolina team that beat the Wildcats by 25 points in Week 2.
No. 22 Louisville has a tough follow-up to its loss to Notre Dame when high-scoring SMU visits.
No. 3 Ohio State faces its biggest challenge to date when breakout star Kaleb Johnson leads Iowa into the Horseshoe.
Texas Tech, picked in the bottom half of the Big 12 preseason poll, has won four of five to start the season and gets a measuring-stick game at Arizona.
And don’t forget the Commander-In-Chief’s Trophy series, which gets underway with unbeaten Navy at struggling Air Force.
Best game
No. 9 Missouri (4-0, 1-0 SEC) at No. 25 Texas A&M (4-1, 2-0), Saturday, noon ET (ABC)
Missouri hopes to play like a top-10 team in its road opener. The Tigers had to erase a 14-3 halftime deficit to beat Boston College and had to go two overtimes to get past Vanderbilt. They’ve had a week off to sort things out, mainly uncharacteristic red-zone and third-down struggles against Vandy.
The Aggies have won four straight since a close loss to Notre Dame. Marcel Reed has started the last three games at quarterback in place of the injured Connor Weigman. A&M coach Mike Elko said Weigman would be a game-time decision. Whoever starts, he’ll be going against the toughest defense the Aggies have faced.
BetMGM Sportsbook lists the Aggies as 2 1/2-point favorites.
Heisman watch
Ashton Jeanty is the best player in the Group of Five. How about the best in all of college football?
The folks at Boise State would argue he is, and the betting public is starting to take notice. He’s the No. 4 choice on BetMGM Sportsbook at 10-1 odds to win the Heisman Trophy, still well behind Alabama’s Jalen Milroe, Miami’s Cam Ward and Colorado’s Travis Hunter.
Alabama’s Derrick Henry was the last running back to win the Heisman, in 2015, and no player from a Group of Five school, as it would be defined now, has ever won it.
Jeanty is the nation’s leading rusher and has gone over 200 yards twice in four games. He had 259 yards and four touchdowns against Washington State last week, with 234 yards coming after contact. He forced 17 missed tackles.
He could put up equally prodigious numbers against Utah State’s porous defense Saturday.
Numbers to know
0 — First-quarter points allowed by Clemson.
9 — Mississippi WR Tre Harris’ nation-leading number of plays of at least 30 yards.
38 — Navy has scored at least this many points in its first four games of a season for the first time in the program’s 144-year history.
1971 — Year of Iowa State’s most recent conference road shutout before last week’s 20-0 win at Houston.
1994 — Year Duke last opened a season 5-0.
Under the radar
Rutgers (4-0, 1-0 Big Ten) at Nebraska (4-1, 1-1), Saturday, 4 p.m. ET (FS1)
The Scarlet Knights probably merit more attention for their best start since 2012. They’re coming off close wins at Virginia Tech and at home against Washington. A road win against a Nebraska team on the rise under second-year coach Matt Rhule almost certainly would end their 12-year absence from the Top 25.
The Cornhuskers are looking for their offense to be sharper than it was in an ugly win at Purdue last week. A victory over Rutgers would move Nebraska within one win of bowl eligibility for the first time since 2016.
Hot seat
Florida State’s Mike Norvell has seen his fortunes turn dramatically.
A year ago, the Seminoles were on their way to 13-0 and an ACC championship before they were snubbed by the College Football Playoff committee because of an injury to their quarterback. A 63-13 Orange Bowl loss to Georgia was considered a one-off considering the Seminoles were No. 10 in the preseason Top 25 and predicted to win the ACC.
But here they sit, 1-4 with No. 15 Clemson up next. The offense is averaging just 15.2 points, the passing game has produced just four touchdowns and six interceptions and the run game is the fourth-least productive in the country. Brock Glenn will take over at quarterback for the injured DJ Uiagalelei.
Norvell was rewarded for last season with an eight-year, $84 million contract extension, and the Tallahassee Democrat reported his buyout would be $65 million. That should be enough to make his bosses think twice, or three times, about making a change.

Opinion: Bullying against Palestinian Americans in San Diego must stop
As the one year anniversary of Oct. 7 looms, Palestinian San Diegans have been counting their dead. The assault on Lebanon has the early patterns that resembles Gaza and the West Bank. I talked to my aunt who lives outside of Beirut. In her 83 years she has seen too much. For her children, now aging themselves, their entire lives have been consumed by war. The numbers of direct family members lost are in the hundreds, perhaps thousands in San Diego County alone.
If that is not enough, individuals and organizations in San Diego have launched rampant bullying campaigns to disrupt and sabotage planned cultural and civil rights events and educational support in San Diego hotels, museums, parks, universities, and schools. Below is a partial list of several incidents and crimes where litigation is pending so few details are able to be disclosed. One is the Council on American Islamic Relations, CAIR San Diego, when their Sept. 14 annual gala’s location was abruptly moved. It resembles a similar incident in Arlington, Va.
The Mingei Museum in Balboa Park in July reportedly postponed a Palestinian Tatreez (embroidery) workshop, indicating threats of protest and violence the week before the scheduled Monday night event.
The San Diego based National Conflict Resolution Center forcibly removed Imam Taha, a board member and recipient of a Peacemaker Award without his consent.
The County Board of Supervisors and mayor Todd Gloria have refused to meet with our community, not only to acknowledge individual and collective traumas, but to remediate recent hostile resolutions and misrepresentations against Middle Easterners and North Africans.
Where is the alarm? Rather, San Diego’s elected officials, civic institutions and colleges accept bullying that limits and sabotages Palestinian Americans’ right to grieve or publicly memorialize the past year of carnage and slaughter, strongly claimed by international law to be a genocide and a scholasticide.
An alternate reality has been concocted to justify extreme actions against Palestinian Americans throughout the country. In San Diego County, the American Jewish Committee and its affiliates such as the Anti-Defamation League have been deemed non-reliable sources by Wikipedia. Palestinian American resources for Oct. 7 are readily available.
Palestinian American students have been the most vulnerable. In Chicago on Oct.14, 2023, 6-year old first grader, Wadea al-Fayoume, was stabbed to death by his landlord. He was unanimously commemorated last month by the U.S. Senate. In Vermont last Thanksgiving, three Palestinian American college students, Tahseen Ali Ahmad, Kinnan Abdalhamid and Hisham Awartani were shot and one, Awartani is permanently paralyzed from the waist down. Nationwide, the increase in hate crimes and incidents have risen to astronomical levels since Oct. 7, 2023.
Threats made to anyone who criticizes Israel creates fear. This perpetuates the dissemination of false information via propaganda. Silencing is already normalized when it comes to Arab, Palestinian and Muslim Americans.
The silence from entities who tally incidents such as the ACLU, FBI and General Attorney’s office have responsibilities to monitor, gather information and begin investigations. Our District Attorney’s office in San Diego and California’s Attorney General in Sacramento are refusing to notice what is threatening our constitutional rights to engage in public debate. After this long period of silence. Our community concludes that they do not care. Prove us wrong.
Our community feels unsafe while it grieves these losses in our home countries. If bullying is not addressed proactively by our civic leaders, it will metastasize and lead to more violence against Arabs, Muslims and all Americans critical of Israel. We expect to practice our constitutional rights without danger and sabotage. We demand that empathy and discussion, ingredients for healing and responsibly constructed resolutions be sought by elected and civic leaders.

Bishop’s runs winning streak over Francis Parker to seven
For the last six years, the yearly matchup between Bishop’s and Francis Parker has been rather one-sided, with the Knights winning each of the last six games.
On Friday night, the lopsided rivalry continued.
Bishop’s extended its win streak to seven with a dominant 48-0 victory over the Lancers.
“It’s always good to get a win, and it’s always good to have guys playing efficiently and effectively,” said Bishop’s coach Shane Walton. “And more than that, it’s good to get these young guys in there and get some opportunities late.”
A day after the announcement of his verbal commitment to the University of Iowa, Knights QB Cash Herrera put together arguably his most efficient performance of the season, passing for two touchdowns and rushing for one, all coming in the first half.
Herrera got his favorite weapons, Ian Browne and Ruben Gutierrez III, involved early. He connected with Browne on a 12-yard TD pass and then hit Gutierrez for a 32-yard TD on a perfectly timed screen, a staple of the Knights’ offense.
Bishop’s (3-2) ended the first half up 34-0.
“Cash is special, and Ruben Gutierrez has been a special player for us,” noted Walton. “Those two guys have kind of gotten things going for us. We’ve been dealing with a lot of injuries, so the offense hasn’t been as efficient as I would like it to be, but we’re starting to gel at the right time.”
The Knights used a RPO-based attack to generate numerous explosive plays against Francis Parker (3-3).
Browne had 100 receiving yards in the first half to go with his TD. Gutierrez added a rushing TD to go with his screen score. Both playmakers were pulled early in the third quarter along with Herrera.
The Knights’ defense was just as impressive as their offense, led by defensive linemen Declan O’Donovan, Henry Armstrong and Cooper Armstrong. The trio produced five sacks and eight tackles-for-loss in the win.
The constant pressure helped create turnover opportunities in the secondary. Son-Son Santiaguel and Jonah Garcia each came away with interceptions. Garcia also forced and recovered a fumble.
“Defense is about everyone being a piece to the puzzle, and we talk about everyone reaching their cap,” noted Walton. “We talk all the time that in every game, you get about 10 to 12 possessions a game. If you can take the ball away three times, that means they get seven to nine, and we get 13 to 15. Anytime you win the turnover battle, you’re typically going to come away with the win.”
