NEW YORK (1010 WINS) – Four men were stabbed, one of them fatally, in a knife fight at an illegal gambling den in Brooklyn on Friday night, police said.
Three of the men were found on a sidewalk on 57th Street, near Seventh Avenue, around 9:30 p.m. in Sunset Park's Chinatown, known as Little Fuzhou.
The police believe the trouble began when possibly three suspects entered a basement gambling den that was fronted by a Chinese restaurant.
Police said the suspects went in to rob the gamblers, but in the end, four people were stabbed.
