A suspect in the fatal stabbing of a man near Interstate 5 on the Fourth of July was arrested Thursday.

Authorities took Ruben Perez, 46, into custody in the 3300 block of Midway Drive shortly after 10 a.m. on suspicion of killing Jason Poindexter, also 46, according to San Diego police.

    Patrol officers responding to a report of an assault found Poindexter wounded just outside a homeless encampment behind a Walmart store at Commercial and 21st streets in Logan Heights at about 1:30 a.m. Friday, Lt. Lou Maggi said.

    Paramedics took the victim to a hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead.

    Prior to the arrival of police, a stocky bald man and a thin woman wearing her hair in a ponytail, both described as possibly homeless, were seen leaving the area in separate directions,

    On Monday, a 45-year-old suspect was arrested in the case and booked into Las Colinas women’s jail in Santee, but she has since been released pending further investigation, the lieutenant said. Her name has been withheld.

    Police have released no suspected motive for the slaying and have not disclosed what led investigators to identify Perez as Poindexter’s alleged killer.
