A 66-year-old man was fatally stabbed inside his home in Chicago’s Logan Square neighborhood on Saturday night, police said.

Around 10:30 p.m., an unknown male entered the 66-year-old man’s home in the 2500 block of West Moffat Street, where the offender stabbed the man multiple times in the chest before fleeing on foot, Chicago police spokesman Jose Estrada said.

Police earlier said the man was 68. The medical examiner’s office identified him as John Alexander. He was taken to Illinois Masonic Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead about 11:25 p.m.

No one was in custody in connection with the stabbing as of Sunday morning, Estrada said. The Chicago Police Department’s Area North detectives are investigating the case.
