Apparently, due to jealousy, the 34-year-old suspect stabbed not only his wife but also her 30-year-old boyfriend. The latter, however, sustained multiple stab wounds that ultimately led to his death, investigators said.
The victim was even rushed to a nearby hospital but doctors declared him dead on arrival.
