A Greenville man was arrested Saturday in connection with a fatal stabbing earlier this month.
A news release from the Greenville Police Department said George Wesley Tyson III, 35, was arrested in Kinston by that city's police department shortly after midnight on Saturday.
The release said Kinston police received tips that Tyson was in the city. He has since been moved to the Pitt County Detention Center where he is being held without bond.
Tyson is a suspect in the stabbing death of Broderick Harris, 34, who was taken to ECU Health Medical Center on Jan. 6. He died from his wounds at the hospital. It is believed Harris and Tyson were involved in a dispute in the 1300 block of Ward Street when the stabbing occurred.
Tyson has prior arrests including possession of a firearm by a felon, common law robbery, assault inflicting serious injury of an officer on duty and robbery with a dangerous weapon.
