A 38-year-old man was arrested after allegedly attacking his 63-year-old father with a large meat cleaver in their Santa Rosa apartment on Monday evening, according to police.
Police arrested Samay Chan, of Santa Rosa, on suspicion of attempted murder after they responded at 7:27 p.m. to the apartment in the 2600 block of Northcoast Street and found the man’s father bleeding profusely.
