DETROIT, MICHIGAN - A man accused of stabbing four people at a Detroit pool party earlier this month, killing two, is now facing charges for the crime.
Daiwan Lemane Hopson, 31, was charged Tuesday with two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of assault with intent to murder.
Police were called to the 18500 block of Fleming Street just before 10 p.m. Aug. 9 on reports of a stabbing. When officers arrived, they discovered four victims. Two of those victims, Martisha Payne, 25, of Detroit, and Jakirea Williams, 31, of Chesterfield, later died from their injuries, while a 31-year-old Pontiac man and 40-year-old Detroit man suffered non-fatal stab wounds.
According to the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office, Hopson and the 40-year-old victim were involved in an argument in the backyard where the party was being held when Hopson allegedly pulled out a knife and stabbed the man multiple times.
