VISALIA, Calif. (KFSN) -- Visalia police have arrested the suspect accused of trying to kill a man with a concrete slab.

They found the victim with major injuries to his head.

Detectives managed to identify Garrett as the suspect with the help of the Homeless Outreach Proactive Enforcement team.

He is now facing attempted murder charges and the victim is expected to make a full recovery.
