Authorities said Jose Fructuoso, 25, was arrested Monday and currently behind bars for the murder of Bennett Bradley, 59. 

Bradley had been stabbed multiple times and was pronounced dead at the
scene.

Capt. Matt Blake, commanding officer of the Olympic area police station, said Bradley -- a director/producer at Fountain Theatre in East Hollywood -- was likely killed around 5 p.m. Friday.

Detectives reportedly found evidence, which they would not disclose, that led them to Fructuoso's residence. 

He and the director lived about a block apart, said officials.
