Carrie Kimball, spokesperson for Essex County District Attorney Jonathan W. Blodgett, made the announcement shortly after 5 p.m. She also confirmed the stabbing took place at a parking lot near the rear of the stadium.
Eighteen-year-old Oscar Quinones, of 22 Sunrise Drive, Bradford, was charged with murder after police were dispatched at 8:40 p.m., last night, to Haverhill Stadium, 117 Lincoln Ave. Quinones was formally arrested about 4 a.m. by Detective Kevin Portnoy.
