A 24-year-old man has been hospitalized following a stabbing in Fordham Manor, a few hundred feet from the Kingsbridge Armory, police said.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
An NYPD spokesperson said they received a call at around 3.30 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 12, adding that the man had been stabbed multiple times in the torso. The spokesperson said the victim was transported to St. Barnabas Hospital in Belmont and is stable.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Norwood News was informed by police that the victim was highly uncooperative in relation to the investigation. Police are leaning towards investigating a dispute among a group of people.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Norwood News spoke to several people at local businesses in the area on Friday evening and asked if they had seen the incident. A woman at Tammy Care Pharmacy said she saw a group of youths running along Jerome Avenue at one point on the opposite side of the avenue to\u00a0 where the pharmacy is located (St. James Park side), but did not know what happened. She said she saw the police and an ambulance arrive later.<\/p>\n

Another business owner in a restaurant located on the other side of Jerome Avenue (on the St. James Park side) said she was in the back of the store at the time and didn\u2019t see anything. Another restaurant worker in another nearby business on the same side of the street said a girl came in to buy some water after the incident and called 911. The woman said she also saw a lot of commotion outside but didn\u2019t know what had happened.<\/p>\n
Another woman standing outside Jacky\u2019s International Unisex hair salon told Norwood News she had been inside the salon getting her hair done when the assault took place. \u201cI was witnessing a fight,\u201d she said. \u201cI saw the young man get thrown right here,\u201d she added, gesturing to the hair salon storefront wall. \u201cI did not see anything. I seen \u2019em run down the block but after that, he was gone.\u201d Asked if she could describe the victim, she said, \u201cI didn\u2019t see his face.\u201d<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Asked if the victim had gotten up after he was thrown down, the woman said, \u201cI was turned around [in her salon chair] but I believe so. I was getting my hair done so they turned me around to finish doing my hair.\u201d<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Later, another woman inside the salon said they all ran into the back when the commotion started outside. She said she didn\u2019t see what the victim looked like, adding she just saw a bunch of people, and she didn\u2019t know how many there were or how old they were. She said she usually keeps the door of the salon locked, but it was open as someone was exiting at the time the assault took place. She said she saw the police arrive but didn\u2019t really see anything after that.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n We asked if it was usual to have trouble in the neighborhood and the woman just said there were often young people hanging around the area after school or around McDonalds.<\/p>\n As reported, two people had been sought<\/a> following an evening shooting in July 2023 that took place in the vicinity of St. James Park a week before another multiple shooting took place in roughly the same area, in which four people, including two kids<\/a> were injured, causing widespread shock<\/a> among the community.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The latter incident had taken place a few days after a peace barbecue<\/a> was held on the block hosted by Bronx Rises Against Gun Violence cure violence group. Two people were initially arrested<\/a> in relation to the latter incident.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n<\/a>A 24-YEAR-OLD MAN is hospitalized after he was stabbed on this block of Jerome Avenue by East 193rd Street in the Fordham Manor section of The Bronx on Friday, Dec. 12, 2025.\u00a0
