<\/p>\nA Bronx community is on edge after a vicious and random sidewalk attack left a father of two dead Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n
No arrests have been made.<\/p>\n
Video shows deadly stabbing in Melrose section of the Bronx<\/p>\n
The deadly stabbing on Third Avenue near East 157th Street was captured on camera.<\/p>\n
Surveillance video first shows the suspect walking down the sidewalk behind a woman pushing a stroller, before he abruptly turns around and hones in on 53-year-old George Ennin.<\/p>\n
The attacker then lunges at Ennin, seemingly trying to kick him. Ennin dodges the kick and tries to run away, but he trips on the sidewalk and falls.<\/p>\n
“I heard a scream. We turned around and I didn’t see nothing, then I see a man stumbling, see a guy running up the block,” said Raymond Febres, a witness who was working construction across the intersection.<\/p>\n
Video shows the suspect then chase Ennin down, grab Ennin’s right arm and stab him multiple times with a sharp object. The suspect can then be seen running away down East 157th Street. <\/p>\n
“I run across the street and I realize. I call 911,” Febres said.<\/p>\n
Febres said Ennin died before emergency responders arrived.<\/p>\n
“Ten or 12 cop cars coming, but it was too late. He was gone by then,” Febres said.<\/p>\n
Police are now searching for the person they say randomly murdered an innocent man.<\/p>\n

Neighbors shocked, frightened by fatal attack<\/p>\n
Ennin’s friends and neighbors are now forced to cope with his untimely and sudden death.<\/p>\n
“This man was one in a million,” neighbor Michele King said. “He was a diamond in the rough.” \u00a0<\/p>\n
Neighbors said Ennin worked as a security guard and had just returned from a month-long trip to Africa.<\/p>\n
“You go halfway around the world to come back to get murdered? On your way to work?” King said. “I thought I was going to have a heart attack.” \u00a0<\/p>\n
“He’s on his way home and wind up losing his life. Over what? Doesn’t make sense,” Febres said.<\/p>\n
“When I would see him, always had a smile on his face,” said a neighbor named Louis. “He would always greet me. He was very friendly, and, again, I’m kind of at a loss for words at this moment.”<\/p>\n
“There’s no respect for life, and that’s a shame,” neighbor Antonio Soto said.<\/p>\n
The fact that the suspect is still on the run has neighbors nervous.<\/p>\n
“I’m just shocked,” Jacqueline Soto said. “I hope they find the person. That’s very scary to have someone on the loose. I hope they find them. How can someone get away with it in broad daylight?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Bronx community is on edge after a vicious and random sidewalk attack left a father of two…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":91703,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[128,3316,9,24,63,103,129,131,130],"class_list":["post-91702","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-the-bronx","tag-bronx","tag-deadly-stabbing","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-nypd","tag-the-bronx","tag-the-bronx-headlines","tag-the-bronx-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91702","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=91702"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/91702\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/91703"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=91702"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=91702"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=91702"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
