NEW BEDFORD, Mass. (AP) — Authorities have identified a suspect wanted in connection with a fatal stabbing in New Bedford.
The Bristol County district attorney's office said Thursday that police are searching for 51-year-old New Bedford resident James Andrews and are seeking the public's help in finding him.
Officials say Andrews has a history of violence, is considered dangerous and the public should not approach him. Authorities believe he is somewhere in the greater New Bedford region.
The DA's office says 47-year-old Allan Monteiro Sr., of New Bedford, was found dead when police responded to a 911 call about a stabbing inside a city apartment at about 5:30 a.m. Thursday.
No information on a motive has been released.
