A 62-year-old, Saul Sanchez, has been arrested and charged with murder for allegedly stabbing a 17-year-old boy, Carlos Rivas, after a fight broke out between two boys and the old man in East Harlem, Manhattan, New York.
The fight broke out shortly after 6:00 PM inside K-Street Food restaurant. The police found three males with injuries: the 22-year-old had a stab wound in his hand, the 62-year-old man sustained a cut on his forehead, and the 17-year-old had stab wounds to his chest and lower abdomen.
