A man was killed when his partner’s ex-boyfriend apparently stabbed him during a heated dispute in an apartment in Brooklyn (NYC).
Christopher Reid, of 33 years old, was seriously stabbed in the chest shortly after 4 pm on Monday, when a fight broke out between him and another man who the police believe he is her partner’s ex-boyfriend. The crime happened inside an apartment building on 2180 Fulton Street near Truxton Street, in the Brownsville neighborhood, authorities said.
Reid was rushed to Brookdale University Hospital Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. The suspect fled after the fatal stabbing, police said.
Investigators know who he is, but he had not been located, reported yesterday New York Post, without giving more details.
