Police in Brooklyn<\/a> are investigating the death of a man who was brutally stabbed to death in front of a cocktail bar, while another man was found injured, early Sunday morning.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to law enforcement sources, officers from the 83rd Precinct<\/a> responded to a 911 call of an assault in front of 1071 Broadway in Bushwick, where Marco\u2019s on Broadway is located, just before 2 a.m. on April 26.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When officers arrived, they found a 26-year-old man suffering from a stab wound to the abdomen and a slash across his face, and a 28-year-old man with a slashed left arm.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

EMS rushed to the scene and brought both victims to Wyckoff Heights Medical Center, where the younger man, whom police identified as Amare Simmons of East 30th Street in Manhattan, was pronounced dead.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The victim\u2019s address is listed as a men\u2019s intake shelter at Bellevue, a homeless shelter that the city plans to close by the end of this month.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the other victim, who was injured, was listed in stable condition at the hospital.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

Police sources said two persons of interest were brought into custody, and a knife was recovered at the crime scene. Officials could not comment further at press time on a motive or if the victims knew their attackers, but the investigation remains ongoing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The data, which runs through April 19, shows that four murders occurred in the precinct by this time in 2025, compared to zero this year during that period.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, overall major crime in the precinct, including rape and robbery, is up 37% year-to-date compared to the same time last year.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
