Deric Wesley, 40

Deric De Carlo Wesley, 40, a black man, was stabbed by a man on a bicycle at the northwest corner of Vernon and Western avenues in South-Central Los Angeles at about 2 p.m. Monday, Oct. 8, said LAPD South Bureau Det. Dave Garrido.

Wesley was taken to California Hospital in extremely critical condition. He survived on life support for more than two weeks before dying at 8:50 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 23.

A couple of hours after Wesley was stabbed, a suspect was arrested. The suspect, a 54-year-old black man, had insisted that Wesley owed him $5, and stabbed him over the debt.
