A West Englewood man is accused of fatally stabbing a neighbor during an argument over a party at the man's house.
Cleotha Robinson, 54, was holding the party at his home in the 6600 block of Oakley Avenue early Sunday morning when he refused to let a 19-year-old man inside because alcohol was being served.
The 19-year-old got angry and began to curse and argue outside Robinson's home with a group of people.
One of Robinson's sons then went outside and got into a fight with the teen. Soon another one of Robinson's son joined the fight, Conklin said. As the fight esculated, Robinson and others left the party and went outside.
Robinson encouraged his sons to fight and was hit by others involved in the fight. Robinson pulled out a knife and stabbed a man.
The victim -- Dyshawn Turnage, 23, of the 6500 block of South Oakley Avenue -- was taken to Holy Cross Hospital. On the way, Turnage told paramedics he was stabbed by Robinson.
Turnage was pronounced dead shortly before 5 a.m. Sunday at Holy Cross Hospital.
Cook County Judge Israel Desierto set bail for Robinson at $300,000
