STAFFORD COUNTY, Va. --  A Stafford man was arrested Wednesday for murdering his younger brother, according to the Stafford County Sheriff's Office.

Investigators were called to a home on Clint Lane, at 5:51 p.m. Wednesday, to investigate a stabbing.

"Callers advised the 911 Call Center that a male subject had stabbed his brother. Upon arrival, deputies observed an unresponsive male lying on his back in a pool of blood with a stab wound on the left side of his torso that was bleeding heavily," a Stafford Sheriff's spokesperson said.

After several hours, the suspect was located in the area of Cool Springs Road and Kings Highway."
