more at the linkGreene County prosecutors late Thursday afternoon charged a man from Springfield for a deadly stabbing at a home on East University Street on Wednesday evening. Edward M. Gutting, 43, is charged with second-degree murder, first-degree assault, two counts of armed criminal action, and first-degree burglary.

The probable cause statement against Gutting says police found Gutting walking in the street in front of the Coopers home. He had blood on his clothes and body. Police immediately detained Gutting and say he was carrying no weapon.
