One man died and at least three others were injured after a violent knife fight outside a gambling house in Chinatown, Brooklyn, in Sunset Park.
The bloodshed happened at about 9:30 am Friday night on the sidewalk outside an illegal basement gambling den in 57th Street and Seventh Avenue, law sources told the Post.
Three men tried to rob the site, but were stabbed by an employee before they could enter, the sources said.
Three pools of blood and torn, blood-stained clothing could be seen on the sidewalk outside the door of Seventh Ave. 5701, where about two dozen New York Police officers sued the crime scene at midnight.
The neighborhood is known locally as “Little Fuzhou”, after the city in the Chinese province of Fujian from which many of its residents emigrated.
The police were still determining whether a stabber was still at large. Three of the victims were taken to NYU Langone’s Sunset Park branch, the sources said.
