this morning after a series of stabbings across Manhattan yesterday with police continuing to
0:05
search for those responsible. That's right. Violence broke out at an inward bodega. That's
0:09
where three people were stabbed and then a harrowing incident in Midtown. That's where a young teen was
0:15
stabbed in the face. That's also where we go right now to find good days. Briella Tomasetti
0:19
she is live in Midtown with the latest on this disturbing trend. Briella, good morning
0:24
Yeah, Tashani and Robert, still a lot of questions surrounding this investigation
0:30
It's unclear, for example, right now, if that 14-year-old boy knew his attackers or if it was random
0:36
We do know, though, that police this morning are looking for two suspects
0:40
both last seen wearing red and black hooded sweatshirts with ski masks on
0:46
We know this all went down, according to investigators, at 7 o'clock last night
0:50
on the sidewalk between 43rd and 44th Street and 8th Avenue. that teenage boy was stabbed just above the left eye. He was initially taken to Bellevue Hospital
0:59
in critical condition, but has since been stabilized. Investigators cordoned off the area
1:04
with crime scene tape as they searched for evidence but so far no arrests have been made Less than two hours earlier police responded to a fatal stabbing in Inwood involving three people It happened at 5 yesterday inside a bodega at West 212th Street
1:18
and Broadway. Investigators say a 20-year-old man was slashed in the neck and taken to Harlem
1:22
Hospital in stable condition. A 24-year-old man was also stabbed in the neck. He later died at
1:28
the hospital. A third person, 21 years of age, was stabbed in the hand and back. He was taken to the
1:33
hospital in stable condition. Those three men were reportedly involved in a dispute inside the
1:38
bodega before the violence broke out. Sources telling us one of the two survivors is now under
1:43
arrest. Here's what neighbors had to say. I'm very sad to understand this is still continuing in the
1:50
neighborhood. It's been a long time this has been happening. I've never seen nothing like this
1:54
And now I'm terrified to even walk through here much longer. As according to NYPD data, in the first quarter of 2025, the city recorded its fewest number of
2:09
shootings since 1994, but last year we saw the highest number of felony assaults in nearly
2:16
two and a half decades. For now though, we're live here in Midtown. Tashani, back to you
2:22
Briella, thank you
