No Motive for Wild Machete Attack

A man is at the KHMH suffering from chop wounds while another is charged for trying to kill him. At around 3:30 yesterday, 19-year-old Marvin Sheron was riding his bicycle on Newtown Barracks when he was attacked by a man he identified as 19-year-old Deon Baltazar.

Baltazar pulled out a machete and chopped him across his hands and on his head. He was hospitalized and is reported in a stable condition. Police arrested and charged Deon Baltazar with attempted murder, dangerous harm, and use of deadly means of harm, but say they do not know what motivated the attack.
