After reportedly stabbing two people, a MAN has been detained after allegedly carrying a knife and entering a Publix shop while covered in blood.
The Polk County Sheriff’s Office in Florida reports that on Monday night, Derrick Charles Emery was at a birthday party when he became highly inebriated and left with two other people.
The arrest report obtained by News Channel 8 claims that Emery, 32, was extremely inebriated when the party’s host suggested he depart.
Emery’s fiancée allegedly remained, though.
The police report adds that the two people Emery left with offered to drive him home.
They were subsequently stabbed by Emery on their way home; they were only designated as Victims 1 and 2 in the report.
While Victim 2 had only recently met Emery, Victim 1 had known him since they were both in high school.
The two victims were allegedly stabbed by Emery while he was shouting “F*** you” at them.
In search of assistance, the victims went back to the flat where the party was being place.
According to deputies, victim 1 was stabbed in the chest and arm, while victim 2 was wounded in the neck, chest, and left forearm.
Emery told the authorities that he had been drunk.
Additionally, he informed them that he thought he was in danger and that the victims intended to hurt him.
However, the sheriff’s office claims that the victims never put Emery in danger.
Emery allegedly travelled to a Publix shop after the stabbing while carrying the knife and covered in blood.
