WASHINGTON — Prince George’s County police filed charges on Monday against a man for fatally stabbing his roommate in a group home in Lanham, Maryland.
Robert Jackson, 37, is suspected of stabbing 25-year-old Bryant Stigall, who was his roommate in a group home for adults with mental health disorders.
Just before 6 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 15, officers were called to the home on the 6000 block of Trexler Road in Lanham, Maryland. They found Stigall in his bedroom suffering from what turned out to be a fatal stab wound. He was pronounced dead on the scene.
