One person confronted the victim and stabbed him. Those three fled in two cars, a white Cherokee and a grey Hyundai. Police say the encounter was very brief.
Condolences poured in over the weekend from those shocked and saddened at Calice’s death. He was described by those who knew him as a bright man that always made people laugh with his sense of humor. He leaves behind a 4-year-old daughter.
