A USC student, Ivan Gallegos, will not face criminal charges for stabbing and killing Xavier Cerf, who allegedly broke into a car near his home on Greek Row. Gallegos and two others approached Cerf after hearing a car alarm go off. Gallegos claimed self-defense, believing Cerf was armed with a gun, but no gun was found. The DA's office decided not to pursue charges against Gallegos after reviewing the evidence.
