In Šibenik, Croatia, a 24-year-old man was arrested following a violent stabbing incident in an apartment. The attack resulted in the death of a 28-year-old man and left a 22-year-old woman seriously injured.

The suspect, who has a prior criminal record for property crimes and drug abuse, was apprehended near his home.
