Police: Victim doesn’t remember being stabbed
Authorities in Loudoun County are investigating a stabbing, but the sheriff’s office says the victim was too drunk to remember how he was injured.
The victim, 32-year-old Nicasio Garcia-Reyes, of Chantilly, told investigators that he woke up Sunday feeling ill. He then discovered several stab wounds in his chest and abdomen, according to the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office. But the office said Garcia-Reyes told police he was too drunk to know how the stabbing happened. He had been drinking tequila with friends at his home the night before. Garcia-Reyes said he didn’t remember being stabbed and didn’t know who would have hurt him or why, the sheriff’s office said.

Man convicted in gay chat line slaying
A 21-year-old Washington man was convicted of first-degree murder in a slaying of a man he robbed after meeting through a gay “chat line,” District prosecutors said.
Antwan Holcomb, a convicted felon, agreed to meet 29-year-old Anthony Perkins on Dec. 27, 2009. Perkins picked up Holcomb in Southeast Washington and the two men drove around for a while before Holcombs shot Perkins in the head. Holcomb grabbed a pack of cigarettes and fled, prosecutors said.
