LOS ANGELES -- A suspect has been arrested in connection to the fatal stabbing of a 2-year-old girl in Jefferson Park, authorities said.
Authorities said the 22-year-old suspect Lataz Gray, who is a known gang member, turned himself in. He was the live-in boyfriend of the little girl's mother, according to police.
