Family of friends of a 26-year-old New Brighton man fatally stabbed in Hudson, Wisconsin over the weekend gathered for a vigil Monday night.

In Hudson, vigil attendees sought healing after the tragic death. They gathered to remember Cain Solheim and to share stories about him so they don’t have to grieve alone.

“It’s something I’ve been thinking about all day,” said Derek Grunnes, a friend. “There’s a mixture of hurt and sadness. A lot of anger as well that someone would feel that another human life is worth taking. It disgusts me. It hurts. It hurts.”

Two people are in custody after the deadly stabbing that occurred early Sunday morning. Police say they’re still looking for more suspects.
