Police say they're investigating two deadly stabbings that were just blocks apart Wednesday in Ocean Hill.

According to the NYPD, both attacks happened within hours of each other, but the incidents don't appear to be related.

The first one happened at 2306 Atlantic Ave. just after 8 a.m. Police found 34-year-old Kelvin Reynoso dead inside with multiple stab wounds to his body.

Officers say 29-year-old Devon Elliot had barricaded himself in an apartment before eventually being taken into custody. He now faces two charges, including murder.

About two hours after that stabbing and four blocks away, police say 35-year-old Ralph Hand was fatally stabbed near Marconi Place. One person was taken into custody.
