Man fatally stabbed in Kensington may have also been run over by a vehicle, authorities say
The victim was identified as Timothy Chaffin.
A man was fatally stabbed in Kensington early Tuesday, and appeared to have also been run over by a vehicle, authorities said.
The victim was identified as Timothy Chaffin by a spokesperson for the Medical Examiner’s Office, who said he could not release the victim’s age.
Officers responded about 12:50 a.m. to the 3300 block of Braddock Street for a report of a person with a weapon and found the man on the sidewalk with multiple stab wounds, police said. The victim also had bloody tire marks surrounding him, police said.
“Medics believed that this may have been a stabbing victim, and he does have one obvious large laceration to his arm, and there’s also a large amount of blood coming from his neck, face, chest area,” Chief Inspector Scott Small said.
Police are looking to retrieve surveillance footage. No weapon was recovered, and no arrest was reported.
