Houston police have arrested the man wanted in the fatal stabbing of a man at 9449 Briar Forest about 11 p.m. Thursday.
Chodwi Deandre McPeters,34, was arrested Friday. McPeters is charged with murder in the 262nd State District Court and is accused in the killing of a man, who suffered multiple stab wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene. His identity is pending notification to family members by the Harris County Medical Examiner.
HPD Homicide Division Sergeant C. M Cegielski and Senior Police Officer A. J. Palos said the dead man, his girlfriend and her young daughter had just arrived at the girlfriend's apartment and were watching television.
At some point, the daughter went to the closet to get a blanket and found her father (McPeters, the mother's ex-boyfriend) hiding in the closet. McPeters, armed with a butcher knife, came out of the closet, stabbed the boyfriend and then fled the scene.
Further investigation led to the identification of McPeters as the attacker in this case.
