Police Arrest Man They Say Slashed His Children


Police have arrested a man they say slashed his two children in their Bronx home.


Investigators say Christopher Stevenson slashed his eight and 17-year-old boys in their home on Watson and Ward Avenues in the Soundville section.


They say the 44-year-old was arrested just blocks away in Soundview Park.


He’s now faces several charges including attempted murder and criminal possession of a weapon.


Police say the boys are in stable condition.


We spoke to a pastor who says he knows the family well.


“It’s just a tragic situation for a family that was filled with so much love,” he says. “They are doing OK, you know. They are not going to be probably released today but they’ll be in the hospital a few days and probably under observation because it is a traumatizing situation.”


Police say they’re still investigating what what led to the slashing.
