Chatham man stabbed to death
By Debora VAN BRENK, Free Press Reporter, Mon., October 30, 2006
A Chatham man is dead of multiple stab wounds after an after-hours house party turned ugly yesterday.
Chatham-Kent police said 26-year-old Ryan Ervin STEELE of Chatham was stabbed in front of a home on Park Street in Chatham's east end at about 4: 30 a.m. yesterday.
STEELE was taken to hospital but died of his wounds.
A suspect was arrested about 10 a.m. and is expected to be in court this morning to face a first-degree murder charge, said Chatham Police Insp. George FLIKWEERT.
He would not identify the suspect.
sources identified a man in custody as Mark LIST, Jr.
FLIKWEERT said numerous people had gathered at the Park Street home, where neither the victim nor the suspect was a resident, after the bars had closed yesterday.
"There were indications that the individuals had been at one of the nightclubs in town and there was a gathering at this particular place on Park Street," FLIKWEERT said.
FLIKWEERT said STEELE was stabbed several times and someone made a 911 call.
Police have interviewed more than a dozen people, seized a vehicle and cordoned off the east Chatham house. They also seized a weapon.
An autopsy is to take place in London today. One media report said STEELE was a father-to-be, with his girlfriend three months pregnant.
The co-founder of a group that has strived to reduce crime in east Chatham said the stabbing is an anomaly. "This isn't the norm anymore," said Marjorie CREW of East Side Pride.
A candidate for municipal council, CREW said the reality and perception of east Chatham "are really improving. We're not looking at this as a setback.
"It doesn't matter where it happened geographically. It's still tragic."
She said so-called after-parties -- gatherings that take place after the bars close -- often end up at homes elsewhere in Chatham-Kent.
"The after-parties have always been a concern because of what usually goes on there -- drinking and so on.
"It's like an uncontrolled environment," she said.

Murder charge laid in Chatham shooting
By Patrick MALONEY, Free Press Reporter, Tues., October 31, 2006
A first-degree murder charge was laid yesterday in the weekend stabbing death of an expectant father described by kin as "a super guy."
Ryan STEELE, who would have been 27 next month, was stabbed outside a Park Street house in Chatham's east end early Sunday.
He leaves behind a girlfriend three months pregnant.
"Ryan was a very, very nice guy," Dennis STEELE said of his son, who worked at the International truck assembly plant. "He's going to be missed."
Though they rarely spoke of the excitement of impending fatherhood, Dennis STEELE says it was obvious the young couple was thrilled to be having a child.
"Just seeing their faces -- he was very excited about it, with this new baby coming on," he said.
People were at the Park Street home after the bars closed Sunday morning, police said.
STEELE was stabbed several times about 4: 30 a.m., police said.
Chatham-Kent police were still interviewing witnesses: yesterday, Const. Doug GUTTERIDGE said. Official autopsy results weren't known.
STEELE, who lived in Oakville in his high school years, grew up dreaming of playing professional baseball and the sport remained a passion, Dennis STEELE said.
The funeral is tentatively scheduled for Friday.
Mark LIST, 23, of Chatham has been charged with first-degree murder. He made his first court appearance yesterday.
