The U.S. Marshals Service is seeking the man wanted for a near-fatal November attack in Southeast Washington. Authorities say 53-year-old Lucious E. McLeod stabbed a man twice in the chest and four times in the back with a knife on a D.C. street on Nov. 1.

McLeod and his victim knew each other, said Eric Mellette of the Marshals Service’s Capital Area Regional Fugitive Task Force. A warrant was issued for McLeod’s arrest that day. He has been charged with assault with intent to kill while armed.
