Authorities have identified the man killed Monday night in a stabbing that stemmed from an altercation at USC 's Greek Row that involved a 19-year-old university student.
Xavier Cerf, 27, died at the scene in the 700 block of West 28th Street, east of University Avenue. The man, who investigators said appeared to be homeless, was found with stab wounds in an alley outside a fraternity house. Police said Gallegos apparently saw someone breaking into cars in the neighborhood and confronted Cerf. LAPD interim Chief Dominic Choi told the Police Commission Tuesday morning that the man allegedly told the student he had a gun before the stabbing.
Gallegos, who was arrested at the scene without incident, was being held on $2 million bail, according to the Los Angeles Police Department and jail records. It was not immediately clear whether he has an attorney. Jail records did not indicate an initial court date.
