"The following article includes allegations as released by the government and should not be taken as truthful evidence or as any indication of guilt. As these allegations remain unanswered by the accused and unadjudicated by a court, they remain unproved and are just as likely false."
Charges have been filed against a suspect arrested in the fatal stabbing of a man at 11311 Harwin #23 about 4:35 p.m. on Thursday (Mar.8).
The suspect, Armando Salmeron-Alfaro (H/m, DOB 2/21/86) is charged with murder in the 338th State District Court. He is accused in the murder of Jose Sorto, 46, who suffered multiple stab wounds. Mr. Sorto was transported to Ben Taub General Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
HPD Homicide Division Sergeant M. Newcomb and Officers R. Odom and A. Mares reported:
Arnamdo Salmeron-Alfaro and Mr. Sorto got into a verbal confrontation that escalated into a physical fight. Salmeron-Alfaro retrieved a kitchen knife, placed it in his pants pocket and waited for Sorto to turn his back. As Sorto turned away, Salmeron-Alfaro stabbed him in the back and chest.
