YOUNGSTOWN — The Youngstown Police Department has identified the man who was stabbed to death Friday evening in the Cornersburg area of the city’s West Side as Nestor Diaz, 37.

In a press release Monday, police also stated that Camilo Barreto, 38, has been arrested in the Pittsburgh area on a murder charge in the case and is now in the Allegheny County jail.

The release states that Diaz was stabbed in the abdomen in the 3700 block of Tippecanoe Road Friday. Police were called there at 7:55 p.m. for a stabbing. When officers arrived, they found Diaz with a stab wound to the abdomen.

Officers and ambulance personnel administered aid, but Diaz was pronounced dead. Detectives and crime scene personnel were called to the scene.

Officers learned that Barreto was the suspect in the killing and that the stabbing resulted from a dispute over property, according to the press release.

Barreto was tracked to the Pittsburgh area, and Youngstown police requested assistance from the Baldwin Borough Police Department, which took Barreto into custody without incident, the release states.

Barreto now awaits extradition back to Ohio to face a murder charge, the release states.

Youngstown police said earlier that the suspect in the case used to live with the victim. After the suspect showed up at the victim’s home, the two argued, leading to the stabbing. The suspect then fled, police said.

Diaz’s death is the 6th homicide of the year in Youngstown. The city had 20 homicides in 2024, not counting two people who were killed in officer-involved shootings on South Maryland Avenue and outside of a Dollar General store on Belmont Avenue.

The last homicide before Diaz was the 2 p.m. March 23 shooting death of Keondre Lewis, 19, who was found in the dining room of a home on Rhoda Avenue on the West Side with a gunshot wound. Lewis was a 2024 graduate of Youngstown East High School.

Officers later arrested a 14-year-old boy, who was arraigned in late March on a murder charge and gun specification in Mahoning County Juvenile Court. He was being held in the detention center of the Martin P. Joyce Juvenile Justice Center.
