By Associated Press

HOUSTON -- A drunken argument over smelly feet led a man to stab his roommate to death, police said Monday.

William Antonio Serrano, 22, and the other man were drinking Saturday night when the victim told Serrano his feet had a foul odor, Sgt. Macario Sosa said.

Serrano grabbed a knife and stabbing his roommate several times, police said. The roommate was not identified by police.

Serrano was in jail on a murder charge, police said. It was not immediately known whether he had a lawyer.

The two men shared a small apartment bedroom they subleased from a married couple. The wife was outside with her newborn baby when she looked inside the window to see one of the men with two knives in his hands, Sosa said.

"By the time she got inside, he was on top of the other man," Sosa said.
