Cops responding to a call of an unconscious male outside a building on Bronx Boulevard near East 224th Street in the Bronx on Monday found an unconscious, unresponsive man with a stab wound to his chest.
According to authorities, the 52yr old man was stabbed during a physical altercation with another man. He was rushed to Montefiore Medical Center where he was pronounced deceased. Cops recovered a large knife in a grassy area near the scene, but it is not clear if this is the murder weapon.

The victim, 70yr old Otto Ponce-Farfan, was walking on Woodbine Street near Central Avenue in Brooklyn just before 9:30AM on Friday when he was accosted by his alleged attacker, a man who was later identified as 29yr old Rafael Fuller. Ponce-Farfan, who worked as a Livery Cab Driver, was rushed to Elmhurst Hospital in Queens where he was pronounced deceased.
Fuller, it turns out, lived only one block over from the scene of the attack. Police were able to track down Fuller, who then barricaded himself inside the residence. The NYPDs’ elite Emergency Services Unit was brought in and successfully apprehended Fuller. Fuller was later charged with Murder 2 and Criminal Possession of a Weapon.
