Avoiding the Avenue
Posted by nathanael. Filed Under crime | Leave a Comment
I didn’t want to violate my new editorial policy – one stabbing post per week rule, first come, first served – meaning I was going to ignore The Avenue Incident for now. But I noticed that Chanley Kan, the older brother of one of the four individuals that were arrested last night was charged and plead guilty to the murder of Alberto Duarte in 2006. He’s serving an 18 year term. Since details a sparse at the moment that provides a touch of context for the incident, all of which is alleged at this point. Cheers though to a family history of violence.
Four suspects were arrested fleeing the bar, though a number of witnesses, as well as the victims, could not say for sure if they were involved in the stabbing.
The defendants are Christian Fuentes, 26, of Allston, Jason Diaz, 28 of Allston, Sopheab Kan, 21 of Brighton and Daniel Chim, 21, of Lynn. Police said the four would be charged with assault by means of a deadly weapon.

The Avenue opening early

The Avenue at 1249 Comm will be open Tuesday morning at 6am for the Red Sox opener in Japan. Unclear if it’s physically possible stomach beer at that hour after another twenty-four hours of basketball left this weekend (K-State at noon and KU at 1!).
