The Ozark County Sheriff Department is investigating a fatal stabbing that occurred around 4 a.m. this morning at a residence just north of the Missouri-Arkansas state line.
The victim is identified as 27-year-old Robert Christian Chambers, of Gainesville.
A suspect is in custody and several persons of interest are being questioned.
The stabbing apparently occurred when one of those involved arrived at the residence to pick up some property. An argument and fight broke out and the stabbing occurred. An autopsy will be conducted Thursday in Springfield.
