A man was charged with murder on Saturday in connection with a deadly stabbing in Alamo.

Larry Charles Culbert, 28, was charged with murder, a first-degree felony, in connection with the stabbing death of 47-year-old Andrea Socorro Reyna, according to a press release from the Alamo Police Department.

Police found Reyna laying motionless on the ground and Culbert in close proximity. He was taken into custody, police said. 

Investigation revealed Culbert and Reyna, along with Reyna's 11-year-old son, had been shopping at Walmart, then relocated to Bealls when a verbal dispute regarding jealousy occurred, police said. 

According to the press release,

"The suspect then knocked the victim to the ground and with a knife cut the victims throat and the suspect then turned the knife on himself, causing a self-inflicted stab wound to his neck area."

Culbert was transported to a local hospital for treatment. Child Protective Services was called to reunite the child with a family member, according to the news release. 

On Saturday, a judge set no bond due to Culbert being considered a flight risk, according to court documents.

Culbert was transported to the Hidalgo County jail.
