A Kimball Township man has been charged with open murder after a stabbing victim succumbed to his injuries more than two weeks after an altercation on a local bike path.
According to authorities, the incident occurred on the evening of Oct. 12, 2025, along the Wadhams-to-Avoca bike path in Kimball Township, where an altercation between two men escalated into a stabbing.
Investigators say 911 was not immediately called. The victim, later identified as Alvis Miranda, 68, of Port Huron, made his own way to the hospital for treatment. The suspect, meanwhile, returned home and subsequently contacted law enforcement to report the incident.
Miranda remained hospitalized but ultimately died on Oct. 28, 2025, at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit. Authorities say his death was the result of complications from the stabbing.
On Dec. 16, 2025, Robert Barr, 60, of Kimball Township, was arrested and charged with open murder in connection with the case.
Barr was arraigned in 72nd District Court, where a judge set bond at $250,000 cash or surety.
The case remains under investigation. Additional court proceedings are expected as prosecutors move forward with the homicide charge.
