Rodriguez was ordered to undergo a mental-health evaluation by a judge on Thursday. He is facing a charge of aggravated battery.

Rodriguez, who is originally from Connecticut, told police that he was "fed up" and purchased the knife in order to kill his roommate.

The victim, a 19-year-old student from Cape Coral who plays on Keiser’s football team, sustained a non-life threatening wound and was taken to St. Mary’s Medical Center for treatment.

A police statement released Wednesday following the incident said Rodriguez and the victim were playing video games when the stabbing took place.But the victim’s mother told The Post on Thursday that her son was playing video games by himself when Rodriquez charged into the room and stabbed him.

Police say that Rodriguez was cooperative after his arrest and told officers he hid the knife inside of the dorm’s bathroom toilet, where it was found.

Records show that Rodriguez was arrested Oct. 30 and faces charges of child abuse and possession of drug paraphernalia after he was found inside a car in Miami with a woman who had overdosed on heroin and an 18-month-old toddler. He was released from jail Nov. 2 on $5,000 bond and has filed a plea of not guilty.

Lynn Christi Pelletier, 27, was found passed out in the driver’s seat after injecting herself with heroin, according to a police report. A syringe was found near Pelletier’s arm and a crack pipe in the vehicle’s middle console.

Rodriguez was ordered by a judge Thursday not to have any contact either with Keiser University or the victim.

"As always, the safety, security, and well-being of our students is our utmost priority," Keiser University said in a statement releaseed Wednesday. "We will continue to work with law enforcement and provide updates in this matter as relevant information becomes available."
