A preliminary hearing has been set for an Alexandria man charged in a fatal stabbing that occurred March 1 in Sterling.

Lathius Noel Martin, 40, is charged with aggravated malicious wounding and is being held without bond at the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center.

According to the arrest warrant, video footage shows Martin and Wesley Richard Scott engaged in a physical altercation outside of a Sugarland Run-area residence. The footage later shows Scott returning to the residence with blood running down his chest.

Officers responded around 10:30 p.m. to find Scott suffering from stab wounds. He was transported to an area hospital where he died the next day.

Martin was arrested at a traffic stop where he was found with blood on his hands, clothing and shoes, according to the arrest warrant. He indicated he had cut his finger and assumed that was what the blood was from, according to the report. Martin also said he had been engaged in a verbal altercation with Scott.

A witness said he was with the Martin and Scott at the home and saw the altercation, according to the report.

Martin is scheduled to appear before a Loudoun General District Court judge April 16 at 1 p.m. for a preliminary hearing.
