EC man arrested in stabbing A man was arrested and charged in an El Campo stabbing last week and his girlfriend also faces charges after allegedly helping him try to leave town. A warrant for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon was issued late last week against David Orozco-Padilla, 18, after he allegedly stabbed a man who owed him money for work. Andres Martinez, 40, was stabbed once in the upper right chest with a folding pocket knife the evening of April 28 after he and Orozco-Padilla allegedly argued over pay for home repair work. Orozo-Padilla allegedly fled the scene. Martinez was flown that night to Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston, where he was released sometime after Friday, according to a hospital spokeswoman, who could not say exactly which day Martinez left the hospital. El Campo Police Lt. Terry Stanphill said after the stabbing, he spoke to Diana Briano-Davila, 20, of Louise, who Stanphill said drove Orozco-Padilla to Martinez' home at 508 Bruns. "She knew he was wanted and she knew he was hiding and there was evidence she knew he was trying to help him escape," he said. Orozco-Padilla, of 1415 E. Jackson was booked for possession of marijuana and the aggravated assault warrant. Briano-Davila was booked for possession of marijuana, no insurance, no driver's license and hindering apprehension. |
