The injured passenger, 45-year-old Anthony Demetrius Watson, was transported to Hennepin Health Care hospital, where he later died from his wounds. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner's office says Watson died from multiple sharp force injuries.
Police arrested a 67-year-old, who said he did it in self-defense. Prosecutors say they can't prove that it wasn't.
