A St. Croix man released in March after nearly seven years of involuntary commitment in a mental health hospital allegedly nearly killed his nephew by knifing his face and abdomen, police said Thursday. The 24-year-old victim told police he woke about 3:30 a.m. Wednesday to use the bathroom in his Stoney Ground home. Finding it already occupied, he headed back to bed where his uncle, Khalid A. Richardson, 34, stood in the darkness with a knife. The victim shouted for an explanation and Richardson responded by slicing his nephew’s face and stabbing him in the left abdomen, police said.
