Staff Reports Avatar

SANTA FE — A suspect is in now custody, following a stabbing reported Oct. 11 at a McDonald’s on Highway 6 in Santa Fe, according to the Santa Fe Police Department.

Police said officers were dispatched to the restaurant at approximately 2 p.m. in response to a reported stabbing. When officers arrived, they learned the suspect had fled the scene.

Galveston County Sheriff’s Office deputies also responded and began gathering information. Santa Fe Fire & Rescue medics treated the victim, who had sustained a stab wound to the back following a dispute over a handicap parking space, police said.

Investigators obtained video footage from eyewitnesses and the business’s surveillance system, which helped identify the suspect, according to the department.

Detectives worked with the Galveston County District Attorney’s Office to obtain a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

The suspect’s name was not provided in the press release. KGTX was advised to check back on Friday for more details.
