Coroner’s Office releases autopsy results of man killed in fatal stabbing

The McDonald County Coroner’s office has released autopsy results of a man killed almost a week ago.

The autopsy was conducted on the body of 31-year-old Christian Cummings of Bartlesville, Oklahoma.

The Coroner’s Office said Cummings was killed by six stab wounds to the chest.

32-year-old Garrett Sumter, also of Bartlesville, was arrested last Saturday night.

He was charged with second degree murder and armed criminal action.

He pleaded not guilty in a court hearing earlier this week.

Sumter is being held without bond in the McDonald County jail.

Sumter and Cummings reportedly went to a bar and later were involved in an argument in the Minnow Springs area of Noel which led to an argument and, later, to the fatal stabbing.
