Suspect Is Dead After Stabbings of Three People on Staten Island
|
A woman and two children were slashed with a knife in their Staten Island townhouse on Sunday night, the police said. Officers later found the woman’s companion in the home with a fatal knife wound.
The woman, 34, and an 18-month-old boy were outside the townhouse, at 110 Hempstead Avenue in Midland Beach, when officers arrived about 7:40 p.m.
The woman said that they had been attacked by her companion, a 40-year-old man, who was still in the house with her 3-year-old daughter.
After unsuccessfully trying to communicate with the man, the police entered the house and found him in the kitchen with a slash wound.
The girl was in a third-floor bedroom.
The police did not release the names of the victims or the suspect.
All the victims were slashed in the neck. The woman and the two children were reported in serious condition at Staten Island University Hospital, the police said.
The man was pronounced dead around 9 p.m. at the same hospital.
