Three men were stabbed in Crown Heights, Brooklyn early Monday morning — just before the notoriously violent West Indian American Day parade was set to kick off, according to police.
A 32-year-old man and 23-year-old man were stabbed in the neck and a 36-year-old was stabbed in the face near Carroll Street and Utica Avenue around 5:48 a.m., cops said.
EMS responded and rushed all three to Kings County Hospital, where the 32-year-old man remains in critical condition.
Police said the parade will be promptly shut down at 5:30 p.m. — a decision made after six people were shot during last year’s festivities, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said.

Just don’t call them “neighbors”
Especially at a funeral. Nothing says rest in peace like a drive by while some skank is twerking on a gold plated coffin for a dead gangster.

I find it personally interesting that you mentioned a Filipino cultural event…
I had considered including a Filipino event in my list, but I thought “OK, I’m going down rabbit holes if I do that…“
I lived in the Philippines for several years, and I enjoyed it immensely. I did not see Filipinos in general in that negative light that we see many anti-American Third World cultures today.
It caused me great heartache to see that degradation of our relationships with the Philippines overtime.
Was the mayor there to kick off the festivities?
“Three men were stabbed in Crown Heights, Brooklyn early Monday morning — just before the notoriously violent West Indian American Day parade was set to kick off...”
My first thought too. I think you also should have included Shoshone.
This must end. Send in the social workers!
Yes indeed. Such behavior adds so much more... local flavor to the festivities.
Whoever said all races are equal was sadly mistaken.
= = =
Yes, they need to study the data on the male race versus the female race.
Texas would still be democratic and electing the heirs to Lyndon Johnson and Ann Richards if not for conservative Californians following their jobs and moving to Texas turning it (R).
West Indian? They don’t look like the Native American people that Columbus found there.
LOL ... thanks ... 🙃
I needed a laugh.
