MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — A Miami Gardens man is facing an attempted murder charge for a stabbing incident that occurred last month, according to police.

Miami Gardens police took Harold St. Vil, 38, into custody on Wednesday.

According to official documents, the victim and St. Vil were at the same party on March 16 when the two got into an argument which led to a fight.

Later in the evening, several of the partygoers went to St. Vil’s home near the intersection of Northwest 190th Street and First Avenue, police said.

According to police, a witness said that when the victim arrived, he was yelling in the street, prompting St. Vil to go inside the home and grab a knife before coming back outside where he “stabbed the victim in front of witnesses.”

Authorities said the the stabbing caused injuries to the victim that required surgery and several days of hospitalization.

After St. Vil was taken into custody on Wednesday, police said he admitted to stabbing the victim, telling investigators that the victim was drunk and that “he pushed him, making his blood boil.”

As of Thursday morning, the Haitian national was being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center with a bond listed as “to be set.”
