An employee from the 99 Ranch Market in Chino Hills, California, was arrested for attacking his co-worker with a meat cleaver.
Marlon Uy, 57, of Pomona, California, allegedly armed himself with a meat cleaver and struck his co-worker multiple times in the upper torso during a heated argument at the 99 Ranch Market at Peyton Drive on Oct. 9.
“After an exchange of words, the suspect armed himself with a cleaver and struck the victim multiple times in the upper torso,” San Bernadino County Deputy Sheriff Komson Phaphui said. “The victim’s co-workers intervened and separated the suspect from the victim.”
