Authorities have obtained surveillance video which shows Michael Lee Williams chasing down popular Portland, Ore., DJ Jacob Shroyer while he was in a parking lot located outside his Old Town apartment. The video purportedly shows Williams forcing his way inside the lobby and fatally stabbing Shroyer in the chest multiple times.
Shroyer, 37, died as a result of his injuries on May 16, a few days after the attack. Williams, 33, will likely face upgraded or additional charges.

Officials have connected Williams to the stabbing and an unrelated incident on a TriMet bus shortly after the stabbing — the latter of which led to his arrest, per the documents. Williams had initially been charged with attempted murder, first-degree assault, third-degree robbery, criminal mischief and unlawful use of a weapon.
Police used surveillance video from the lobby, the parking lot, nearby businesses and TriMet to piece together the crimes and connect the suspect back to the fatal stabbing.
