Details Surrounding the Incident
Blue Stevens, a father of two, was tragically killed last summer outside The Park Tower Casino in Knightsbridge. Witnesses reported hearing disturbances and seeing emergency responders at the scene around 9:25 p.m. Stevens was found with fatal injuries and was pronounced dead shortly after emergency teams arrived.
Initial accounts suggested the stabbing occurred during an attempted robbery of Stevens’ Rolex watch, but police have since stated the possibility that the attack was targeted remains under consideration.
Early Arrests and Investigation Status
A few days after the stabbing, police arrested three individuals in connection with the case. At the time, a senior detective described these arrests as a significant advancement in the complex murder inquiry. The investigation remains open and ongoing as new suspects emerge.
