Man charged with stabbing CEO who gave him bad review
CHICAGO (AP) — An employee who received a bad performance review was charged with fatally stabbing the president of a construction company, authorities said. Gary Poter, president and CEO of Poter Construction and Development, was stabbed Tuesday with a kitchen knife at his office, police said.
Tom Tuduj, an appraiser and bidder for the company who received a bad review Monday, was charged with first-degree murder, police Cmdr. Dean Andrews said. The pair struggled before Poter, 48, was overcome, Andrews said. A man who tried to intervene was stabbed in the hand.
Dae Kim, who works in the same building, said he ran into Poter's office after hearing a commotion. He saw two people holding a man against a wall and another man lying in front of a desk with blood coming from a chest wound. Kim said he helped others restrain the man until police arrived. "He didn't say a word," Kim said. Tuduj, 33, was in custody and scheduled to appear in court Wednesday, police said. It was not clear whether he had an attorney.
