NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — A man was arrested in connection to a deadly stabbing in a Bronx vestibule Friday night, police announced Sunday.

Rupert Allen, 54, allegedly stabbed Anthony Nieves, 40, in the torso multiple times around 7:55 p.m. inside the vestibule of 418 East 148th Street in the south Bronx, cops said.


Nieves was transported to NYC Health + Hospitals/Lincoln, where he was pronounced dead.

Allen chased down Nieves on his way to a cash-checking store nearby, the Daily News reported.

Sources told the News that Nieves entered the vestibule to hide from Allen. A man was reportedly seen chasing down Nieves before the stabbing.

It wasn't immediately clear if the two had known each other before the attack.
