Two women and a man were stabbed to death during a domestic dispute last night inside a public housing complex in East Harlem, Manhattan.
The violent brawl broke out at the NYCHA Polo Ground Towers building on Frederick Douglass Boulevard around 10:30 p.m. Friday, police said.
A 36-year-old woman was stabbed in the torso. Another 23-year-old and a 41-year-old man were stabbed in the hand and head, respectively. The three were transferred to Harlem Hospital in stable condition, reported New York Post.
The origin of the attack or the link between those involved is not clear. An unidentified male suspect, who suffered a knee laceration, was arrested after the attack.
Hours earlier yesterday, in another domestic violence case, a retired NYPD agent and her immigrant boyfriend were found dead with gunshot wounds inside their home in Brooklyn (NYC) in a possible homicide-suicide case.
Previously, on Tuesday night, a 62-year-old Dominican doorman was fatally shot by his roommate in The Bronx (NYC) when he was celebrating a $300 dollar lottery prize.
