A Norfolk man has been arrested for stabbing three people in Virginia Beach, and killing one of them.

On Sunday, May 6, 2012, at approximately 3:15 a.m., Virginia Beach dispatchers received a call for a male who had been stabbed in the Way Point Apartments complex.

When police and rescue personnel arrived in the 5100 block of Venture Court, they found three male victims on the sidewalk suffering from stab wounds.
