Man Stabbed Following Altercation at South El Monte High School Graduation, Suspect at Large
A somber shadow was cast over a graduation ceremony in South El Monte when a violent altercation led to the stabbing of a man outside South El Monte High School. According to the KTLA, the incident occurred as guests were leaving the ceremony around 9 p.m. on Wednesday. The argument between two men, not students at the school but guests, quickly escalated, leaving one Hispanic man in his 20s stabbed and transported to a local hospital in stable condition.
The authorities initiated a search for a suspect described by witnesses as a Hispanic man in his 20s, who supposedly managed to quickly flee the scene adorned in black attire. This incident disturbingly aligns with a separate report provided by CBS News Los Angeles, which identifies two suspects in connection to the stabbing. As of their last update, the LASD has not detained anyone, and the investigation notably continues to gather pace.
Diverging from initial reports, ABC7 shared details indicating the victim was a male student, though notably not a member of the graduating class, who suffered a chest wound in the altercation. Despite the seriousness of his injuries, it has been indicated that the student is expected to survive. As families were commemorating the scholastic achievements of their graduates, an urgent assembly of law enforcement was centered around the school, deepening the distress of the evening.
