NYPD: Queens suspect dead after being shot by police during domestic stabbing
Police said they shot and killed a 20-year-old Queens man Thursday after a domestic stabbing that left his 8-year-old stepbrother dead and his father and stepmother injured with multiple wounds.
The building’s security desk called 911, Chell said. Officers arrived at the small apartment to find a 20-year-old man holding his 43-year-old father in a headlock over the kitchen sink with a knife to his throat, he said. The father had multiple stab wounds in his head and across his body, police said.
Chell said the officers fired one round, hitting the suspect in the torso and preventing him from continuing the assault. He was taken to Jamaica Hospital in stable condition, and later died from his injuries, police said Friday morning. His stepmother was also taken to the same hospital where she is still being treated.
Police said they were still trying to figure out how all the people involved were related to each other. Officials said it was not clear whether they all lived together in the apartment.
