A Livingston man was killed in a brutal stabbing that took place Monday night. Dr. Sam Peterson was allegedly stabbed to death by one Gavin Harrison after the two had a falling out due to a deal they had regarding Dr. Peterson writing falsified prescriptions. Harrison allegedly rammed into Peterson’s car and then proceeded to stab him at least forty times before a bystander, 17 year old Noah Wilson ran to help and held Harrison down until authorities arrived. The FBI has took over the investigation from the Overton County Sheriff’s Office as Dr. Peterson was involved in an ongoing federal investigation by the U.S. attorney’s office. Local authorities thank Mr. Wilson for his heroic actions and say that without his intervention, the killer would still be out there.
