Police have made an arrest in one of two deadly stabbings early Monday morning in Southeast Austin.

Epifaneo Torres, 37, is charged with first-degree murder in the stabbing death of Edgar Gomez. Torres is being held on $100,000 bond.

Just after 1 a.m. Monday, officers found Gomez dead in the street on Thrasher Lane just off Riverside Drive.

His body was found just moments after another man was found stabbed to death in a parking lot a couple of miles down Riverside.

Police don't know if the murders are connected.
