(7,433 posts)LOWER MANHATTAN (WABC) -- ]Police have released video and photos of the three men they say stabbed a migrant teen to death and wounded another in Lower Manhattan. Authorities now believe the deadly stabbing stemmed from a dispute between two rival gangs.
Tuesday morning, police were still searching for three people they say were behind the incident that left 17-year-old Yeremi Colino dead and an 18-year-old injured. The injured man is expected to recover. A video captured the trio on camera following the attack on John Street near Broadway before 8 p.m. Thursday.
Police have on video a larger group displaying gang signs when confronted by the victims and asked, "Why are you flashing gang signs?" It quickly turned into to a street brawl.
That's when the 17-year-old was stabbed fatally in the chest and pulled into a drug store by a worker who called 911. Police believe the victims are members of Venezuelan migrant gangs taking hold in New York City-run hotels around 42nd Street. The suspects in the video are believed to be migrant gang members from the Caribbean community. Detectives have been hard at work from the time the crime occurred, narrowing in on evidence left behind at the scene.
