Redondo Beach Police have arrested a suspect in the stabbing assault of a man late last night near the Redondo Pier.

Mickey Baldwin, 19 years old, of Redondo Beach, was arrested late Wednesday morning at a boat in the Redondo Beach Marina. “We were able to identify him through an interview with the victim, and based on that we were able to locate him at the Marina,” said RBPD Lt. Joe Hoffman.

RBPD were called to 100 Avenue of the Arts at 11:20 p.m. Tuesday, responding to a call alerting police to an altercation between two men. When they arrived, they found an 18 t0 20 year old man being treated at the scene. According to Sgt. Shawn Freeman, the man was responsive, but just barely. “When we got there, he was only able to give us his name,” Freeman said.
