Elvis L. Canfield, 51, was stabbed to death in the early hours of August 28, 2013, on the 3900 block of West Division Street in the Humboldt Park neighborhood of Chicago. The attack happened shortly after 1 a.m. during an altercation with 27-year-old Oliver Spann, described as the ex-boyfriend of Canfield’s current partner. Canfield was stabbed several times and died of his injuries despite an immediate response. Spann was arrested and charged with first-degree murder; authorities said his anger over his ex-girlfriend’s new relationship with Canfield motivated the violence. The killing came amid a period of heightened violence in Chicago that year.

Does anyone have information about the incident or knew Elvis Canfield or his partner that could help clarify what happened that night?
