- 1 killed 1 arrested August 29, 2015 Jaquan Huston Allegedly Fatally Stabs Fellow Chef at Boston Suburb P.F. Chang's Apparent workplace violence incident. Jaquan Huston (black) admitted to fatally stabbing Elivelton Dias (hispanic) Saturday evening in the kitchen of the P.F. Chang’s restaurant at the suburban Boston Northshore Mall, but a not guilty plea was entered on Huston’s behalf. Employees heard screams and saw a 12-13 inch blade knife in Dias' back, and the attack was captured on security video. Huston claims when he was working in the kitchen, he thought the 38-year-old Dias was speaking about him, and “plunged the knife into his back” and then fled the restaurant. Huston’s mother, Shawn Maron-Huston, defended her son who she says told her her he had been threatened by Dias and he “snapped.” “He’s not a murderer, but he has anger issues,” Maron-Huston told WBZ-TV
