Update: Trial rescheduled for methadone clinic death

A murder trial has been postponed for a 32-year-old Massachusetts man who police say killed another man outside of a Pawtucket methadone clinic.

Police say John Duffy killed Ronald Leone in October 2006 as the two waited to get into the clinic at 31 North Union St.

The two allegedly got into an argument about a woman who tried to reclaim her spot in line. Police say Duffy got upset when the woman tried to get back in line. Leone defended the woman.

Police say the argument escalated, and Duffy stabbed Leone in the head and in the side. Duffy faces a single charge of murder. His next court appearance is set for April 16.
