An arrest has been made in the fatal stabbing of a good Samaritan who tried to intervene in a dispute between roommates in Westminster on Friday.
Police were called to the 7300 block of 21st Street at around 1 p.m. after learning of the stabbing, according to a statement from the Westminster Police Department. They arrived to find multiple residents of the apartment complex holding down the suspect, who has since been identified as Isaias Saquic-Saquic, 35, police said.
Martin-Perez was rushed to a nearby hospital where he later died. Another of Saquic-Saquic's roommates, a 35-year-old man, was also taken to the hospital for non-life-threatening injuries. 'Mr. Perez's actions were nothing less than heroic,' said Westminster Police Chief Darin Lenyi in a statement. 'Tragically, his efforts to protect his neighbor cost his life. I have no doubt his bravery saved the lives of others in the area.
