Homicide detectives with the Fresno County Sheriff’s Office have arrested 18 year old Brice Robinson of Fresno.

He has been booked into the Fresno County Jail on a charge of murder. His bail is $1 million.

Shortly before 7:30 pm on Sunday, Fresno County Sheriff’s dispatchers received a call of a stabbing victim at a home on the 4000 block of N. Sunnyside Ave. in Fresno’s Tarpey Village neighborhood.
