Man stabbed near heart in Framingham

FRAMINGHAM -
A bloody homeless man was arrested early yesterday morning and charged with stabbing a Beaver Street resident, barely missing the victim's heart.
The victim was taken to Boston's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center after the stabbing reported at 2 a.m. yesterday, police spokesman Lt. Paul Shastany said. Police did not release the victim's name and his condition was unknown.
Police found the victim outside 270D Beaver St. with multiple stab wounds, Shastany said. "It is very serious," the lieutenant said. "Some of the wounds appeared on his upper body, near his face. He also had a stab wound to the chest, just missing his heart."
Eber A. Rivera, 23, of Framingham, was charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, a knife; assault with the intent to murder or maim; assault with the intent to commit a felony; assault and battery on a disabled or injured person; and disturbing the peace in a fight, police said.
Police are investigating a motive for the stabbing. They believe the victim and suspect might not have known each other before the violent encounter, Shastany said.
Rivera told police he "had a beef" with the victim, whom he used a racial slur to describe. "He disrespected me," Rivera allegedly told police.
After the stabbing, Rivera fled from 270 Beaver St. and bolted in front of a police cruiser driven by a responding patrolman.
Officer Arthur Sistrand was on Beaver Street at the time the call came in, and started driving toward the crime scene without turning his blue lights on, Shastany said.
"Boom, there's a guy running out in front of him," the lieutenant said.
Rivera then led the officer on a foot chase down the street and sidewalk.
"This guy is basically outrun," Shastany said. "He's covered with blood."
Police used a state police patrol dog to search the area, but did not find the knife, Shastany said yesterday.
"The investigation is still ongoing," he said.
Residents in the apartment building either declined comment or could not be reached.
