SUPERIOR Court Judge Teresa Kim-Tenorio imposed a $10,000 cash bail on Darvin K. Muna, who was accused of stabbing another man on May 14, 2025.
Muna, 22, was charged with disturbing the peace and assault with a dangerous weapon.
At a hearing on Friday, Muna was represented by the Public Defender’s Office, while Chief Prosecutor Chester Hinds appeared for the government.
Judge Kim-Tenorio remanded Muna to the custody of the Corrections Department after the hearing and ordered him to return to court for a preliminary hearing on Aug. 14 at 10 a.m. and for arraignment on Aug. 18 at 9 a.m.
The Department of Public Safety said Muna was arrested after he confessed to stabbing another man.
DPS received a call reporting a stabbing incident on Commonwealth Drive in Chinatown on May 14, 2025 at 6:30 p.m. “Preliminary officers who arrived at the scene identified a 56-year-old male with a stab wound on the left side of his chest,” DPS said.
The Department of Fire and Emergency Medical Services transported the victim to the Commonwealth Healthcare Corporation, where he received treatment.
According to DPS, police learned that while the victim and his employees were gathered at a shop, the suspect drove recklessly past them. He later returned to the location and aggressively confronted the group, asking if they “had a problem.” When the victim approached the suspect and spoke to him through the driver’s side window, the suspect stabbed him in the chest and immediately fled the scene.
While officers attended to the victim, the suspect called the emergency line and confessed to stabbing the victim. Officers later made contact with the suspect, identified as Darvin Muna. He was subsequently arrested for assault with a dangerous weapon.
