8-year-old Stabbed to Death by Brother; Killer Also Stabbed Parents but Left 8-month-old Baby Unharmed in New York City; Cops Shot Killer Dead to Save Father’s Life

A tragic incident unfolded in Queens on Thursday, as a violent individual armed with a knife took the lives of his 8-year-old brother and attacked his parents. The police intervened and, in the process, the assailant was fatally subdued.
Authorities responded to a cramped unit within a building in Jamaica following a distressing incident. The mother, who was bleeding, urgently sought help and pleaded for her life, prompting the arrival of the police. NYPD Chief John Chell provided this information.
According to police and law enforcement sources, officers discovered a distressing scene inside the premises. They encountered a 20-year-old individual who was holding his father in a headlock near the kitchen sink, with a knife pressed against his throat.
“Commands were given multiple times, in both English and Spanish, instructing the individual to drop the knife.” No, he did not. “One officer discharged a single round, successfully hitting the target and ultimately preserving the individual’s life,” stated Chell.
A tragic incident unfolded as a family of four was swiftly transported to the hospital. Sadly, both the young boy and his sibling tragically lost their lives due to their injuries.
The mother, aged 29, and father, aged 43, are currently receiving medical treatment for their injuries.
An 8-month-old infant who was also present in the home emerged unharmed from the tragic incident.
Authorities are currently investigating the relationship between the suspect and the young victim, as well as the details surrounding the “tragic and horrific event.”
The investigation is still in progress as reported by The Post.
