Man charged in fatal Christmas Day double stabbing in Olney

Investigators say Quino was drinking heavily and began arguing with his girlfriend and her son.

Police have charged a 33-year-old man with murder, attempted murder and related charges in connection to a double stabbing at a family party in Olney on Christmas morning.

Authorities say Josue Quino fatally stabbed Juana Us-Perez and critically injured a teenage boy after an argument escalated to violence.

The incident reportedly happened on the 5600 block of Mascher Street around 3 a.m.

Investigators say Quino was drinking heavily and began arguing with his girlfriend and her son.

Quino reportedly retrieved a knife from the kitchen and stabbed a 14-year-old boy in the right thigh during a struggle for control of the weapon.

Police say Quino got another knife and stabbed the 35-year-old Us-Perez several times in the stomach and chest while he chased her outside of the home.

Authorities arrived on scene just after 3:30 a.m. and transported the woman to Albert Einstein Hospital where she later died. The teenage victim was placed in critical condition. Police arrested the suspect at the home.
