The incident occurred just before 3:00 a.m. on Saturday morning, where the tenants of an apartment complex on Campus Avenue were socializing playing dominoes. During the game Shande Bradley,35, began to behave disorderly and was told to leave. Bradley repeatedly returned and was asked to leave. Eventually, Bradley returned with a knife and stabbed Edward Westby, 24.
