A 35-year-old man was stabbed to death last night on Grand Avenue, just north of Fordham Road and just a block away from Devoe Park, according to police.
Officers from the 52nd Precinct found the man bleeding to death from multiple stab wounds in the lobby of 2460 Grand Ave. at around 6 p.m. Emergency workers transported the victim to St. Barnabas Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Police are waiting to notify the family of the victim before releasing his name. They said no arrest have been made yet and that the investigation is ongoing.
We’ll have more details when we get them.

This is very concerning. Our neighborhood, specifically the Northwest Bronx, is becoming more and more dangerous. I call upon our local electeds officials to make fighting violence a top priority.
I’ve lived in the neighborhood for 20 years, the police does nothing but arrest young kids for smooking weed, they don’t go after the know drug dealers, who occupy the apartments and buildings. cut out the supply and there is no sale. The young boys are there biggest collar and they are statisfied. they don’t live in the community so they have no clue what so ever is going on.
