LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. - The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office has arrested a man in connection to a parking lot stabbing that happened back in May of this year. 

Police say the incident happened just after 2 a.m. on May 17 outside of Tipicos Los Amigos restaurant located at 46950 Community Plaza in Sterling. 

A caller reported that a fight had broken out and when deputies arrived, they found a man who had been stabbed in his abdomen. He was taken to an area hospital with serious injuries.

Following an extensive investigation, detectives were able to identify 24-year-old Jose Luis Cordon Caheque as the suspect in this case. 

On Dec. 20, Cordon Caheque was found at a home in Salisbury, Md. and was taken into custody without incident.
