Several people were hospitalized Saturday evening for varying injuries sustained on a fight aboard a party boat near a busy Brooklyn pier, multiple law enforcement sources said.
The incident unfolded around 5:30 p.m., when emergency aid calls first reported what sounded to be a stabbing at the Brooklyn Army Terminal. Police and fire officials responding to Pier 4 found multiple stabbing victims, but no perpetrator was apprehended. At least two people received stab wounds and were being treated at Lutheran Medical Center.
A third person was struck in the head with a bottle and was taken to the hospital as well, the sources said."It just broke out as we were trying to leave," Christina Mejia, one of the passengers, said. According to police, an argument aboard the party yacht escalated when one man was stabbed multiple times in the chest and abdomen, and a second was stabbed in the lung.ScienceThis couple bought a rundown abandoned house for $1.5 million and plan to make it their forever home: Take a look inside
