BERLIN (AP) — German police say a man has been fatally stabbed on a street in Stuttgart with a “sword-like object.”

Police and prosecutors said Thursday that a 28-year-old Syrian man who apparently had shared an apartment until recently with the 36-year-old victim was arrested.

There was no immediate word on a possible motive for the stabbing Wednesday evening, which followed an argument between the two men. The perpetrator initially fled on a bicycle.
