Jerome Hudson

New London — Police officially have charged a 28-year-old city man in the Sunday stabbing death of Travon Brown, who was 27.

Officials on Friday morning transported Jerome Hudson, already in state Department of Correction custody on drug-related charges, to the city court where major crimes are tried. There police served the arrest warrant they obtained earlier this week.

Hudson then was arraigned on the charge of murder. Hudson, assigned and held on a $1 million surety bond in the case, has yet to hire an attorney.

The warrant in the case has been sealed until Jan. 5, 2018. Hudson's next court date is Jan. 2, 2018. His ongoing drug-related cases will be handled on the same day.

Police found Brown suffering from stab wounds about 2:30 p.m. Sunday in a house near Grand and Elm streets. Brown had sought assistance at 22 Grand St., but the residents there weren’t involved in the incident.

Crews took Brown to Lawrence + Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The results of a post-mortem examination are pending.
