DOWNTOWN, LOS ANGELES (KABC) — One man was injured and another died after both were stabbed to death at a Mid-City assisted-living facility Friday afternoon, police said.

The stabbing happened just before 4 p.m. at the Crenshaw Nursing Home on Longwood Drive, where officers found the two men stabbed to death, according to the Los Angeles Police Department.

Police said the victim who died was a man in his 60s and the injured man was a 35-year-old.

LAPD Det. Sean Kinchla told Eyewitness News that all three people involved were residents of the facility and investigators believe the incident may have stemmed from an argument.
