MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- A 25-year-old man wanted in the apparent stabbing of another man in Madison has turned himself in and is in custody.

Sgt. Jennifer Kane says the man turned himself in Sunday afternoon. Authorities were called to Oak Park Terrace mobile home park on Saturday night to find a man had been severely injured. He did not survive.

Police say his injuries were consistent with stabbing, but a final cause of death was not immediately released.

On Sunday, Jean Leman told the Wisconsin State Journal that her daughter had broken off a nine-year relationship with the suspect, and that the victim was her daughter's new boyfriend.

Madison policed say the "violence was the result of a personal dispute between the victim and suspect."
