SALT LAKE CITY — One person is dead after a stabbing incident on Main Street in Salt Lake City Thursday afternoon and police are looking for two suspects in connection to the incident.

Police responded to the Palmer Court housing complex on Main Street on Thursday at 3:43 p.m. after they received reports of a stabbing.

When they arrived, officials found a man in critical condition and performed medical aid as paramedics were on their way.

The victim, who was later identified as 34-year-old Charles Alires, was pronounced dead at the scene.

On Friday, police announced they identified two suspects in connection to the stabbing.

Taddy Avalon Jackman,43, and Ivy Chase Grant, 26, are both wanted by officials as an investigation into the case continues.

Community members should not approach either man if located, and instead should call 911 to alert authorities.
