YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) – A man charged with fatally stabbing another man outside of a Circle K in Yuma was back in court Friday.
26-year-old Angel Witrado is facing one count of first-degree murder.
His attorney requested more time to review additional video evidence.
The state allowed the request and will present Witrado with a potential plea deal at his next court appearance.
The Yuma Police Department says he stabbed 37-year-old Justin Arviso outside of the Circle K on 24th street and Avenue B last October.
Arviso was taken to Onvida Health where he died from his injuries.
Witrado was arrested after he was found in Maricopa County, where he was arrested on an unrelated charge.
He will be back in court on May 16.
