A Colton man faces an attempted murder charge after police say he stabbed a Riverside man multiple times in the chest on Tuesday.

Beasley was arrested in the 800 block of East Washington Street and booked into the West Valley Detention Center under suspicion of attempted murder.

He is being held in lieu of $1 million bail on the attempted murder charge, as well as three separate $25,000 bonds on charges including driving with a suspended license and driving without a license.

He is due to appear in San Bernardino Superior Court on Thursday.
