Soto and his alleged killer had reportedly started drinking at a bar earlier on Wednesday evening and had stopped drinking during the wee hours the following day. The suspect reportedly decided to leave with a female. It is still unclear what happened after but this newspaper understands that there was an issue between the suspect and the young lady.
At some point the Venezuelan national reportedly decided to intervene and offered the young lady a drop on his bike. According to police, the request he made for the “girl” to travel with him aggravated the suspect. There was an exchange of words between them and the suspect pulled out a knife and stabbed Soto to the left side of his chest before escaping. Soto fell and bled to death right next to his ATV.
