Man in Hospital After Allegedly Being Stabbed by Fellow Tenant


One man is in the hospital with life-threatening injuries after being stabbed this morning on the Upper West Side.


Police say they have a suspect in custody.


They say he stabbed the victim multiple times in the neck and head around 1:30 a.m. Saturday morning.


They say it appeared to be a dispute between two tenants of an apartment building on West 94th Street.


Police say the victim, a man in his 40′s, was taken to Saint Luke’s Hospital.


One person who lives in the building says he’s concerned about security.


“This place is supposed to be independent living and they just let anyone in,” he said.


“We’ve been very concerned about something like this happening. Like a stabbing, the safety and security of the area,” another resident said.


“It’s very disturbing because I didn’t think it would happen here,” said a third.


Police have not identified the suspect, but they say he’s also in his 40′s.


Charges have not yet been filed.
