407ds agoPolice say a fight between two roommates ended with one of
them dead.
The NYPD says an altercation in Bedford-Stuyvesant took
place around 4:30 a.m. Thursday, where they found a 72-year-old man laying in
bed unconscious with a head injury. EMS declared him dead at the scene.
According to police, the man got into a physical
altercation with his 60-year-old roommate, but what happened afterwards is
still unclear.
Other neighbors who weren’t looking to speak on camera said
both roommates seemed quiet, and the neighbor across from where the incident
happened said he didn’t hear anything at all.
Authorities say the 60-year-old roommate is in police
custody.
