LEE'S SUMMIT, Mo. (AP) — Authorities are looking for a suspect in a fatal roadside stabbing in Missouri that claimed the life of St. Joseph man.
Lee's Summit Police say that 23-year-old Cody Harter died after being stabbed Saturday evening near the junction of Missouri 291 and Interstate 470.
Witnesses told police that Harter had been arguing with another person before his death and a second vehicle had been stopped in front of Harter's truck.
Police believe Harter was stabbed during the confrontation before the other driver fled.
Harter was a member of the Missouri Air National Guard, and family members said he had served in Iraq in the past and helped with hurricane relief last year.
