BAKERSFIELD, CA (KUZZ) — A Bakersfield man accused of stabbing his family members has been found incompetent to stand trial.
On Wednesday, Daniel Johnson, 23, was ordered to a state mental health hospital for up to two years while doctors work to restore his competency.
In November 2023, police say they found Johnson naked and bloody outside a home on Cherry Creek Lane in northwest Bakersfield, where four of his family members had been attacked with a knife.
Criminal proceedings have been suspended, and the court approved Johnson being placed on prescribed anti-psychotic medication.
