VIRGINIA BEACH
A 25-year-old man who was stabbed last week has died, police said today.
Dennis Johnson, of Virginia Beach, died Saturday night at a hospital, police spokesman Jimmy Barnes said.
Police arrested Johnson’s girlfriend, Syrayra D. Wynn, and charged her with first-degree murder. She was being held without bond at the city jail.
A police officer was flagged down late Wednesday by a person on Sassafras Court, in the city's Thalia section, and told that Johnson had been stabbed, police said.
Investigators determined that Johnson and Wynn had been arguing and that Wynn had stabbed him in the chest, police said. According to court records, Wynn confessed to police.
Wynn initially was charged with aggravated malicious wounding. A judge set her bail at $5,000 on Friday, despite prosecutors’ protests.
