One person dead after stabbing at St. Petersburg home, police say

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Police in St. Petersburg are investigating a deadly stabbing early Tuesday morning.

The incident occurred at the victim's home, located at 4827 Haines Road North. Around 2:30 a.m., police said they received a call about an argument between two men. One was stabbed by an "acquaintance," detectives said, and had life-threatening injuries.

Investigators said the victim, later identified as 18-year-old Justin Xavier Schmitt, was taken to Bayfront Health where he passed away. Schmitt would have turned 19 years old on Wednesday.

One person was questioned Tuesday morning, but has not been charged.

“It looks like the two men were known to each other and they got into some kind of quarrel," said Yolanda Fernandez, a spokesperson for the St. Petersburg Police Department. "We don’t believe there is any issue with anyone else being in danger in this area.”

The events leading up to the stabbing remain under investigation.
