Grady (Courtesy El Paso Police Department)A Northeast El Paso man was arrested early Saturday after he allegedly lunged from his motorized wheelchair and stabbed another man.
El Paso police spokesman Darrel Petry said that James Grady, 52, of the 8700 block of Gateway North, visited another man, Billy Cheeks, in a neighboring apartment at about 6:50 a.m. Saturday.

At the apartment's front door, Grady got up from his wheelchair, entered the apartment through the partially opened front door and allegedly stabbed Cheeks in the upper left side of his chest with a throwing knife, police said.

Petry said Cheeks attempted to defend himself by hitting Grady with a sword, denting it. Grady fled from the apartment in his wheelchair, Petry said, but was later found at the intersection of Hercules and Mercury. :lol:

Cheeks was taken to Beaumont Army Medical Center for treatment, while Grady was taken to Thomason Hospital. Grady was later booked into the El Paso County Jail on attempted murder charges.

I was sitting at discount tire yesterday waiting for a rotation and read the ENTIRE houston chronicle and came across that story....I remembered it when I got home and typed it into google and found it.
