Entry #18 - June 1, 2014


By Laura Ly


A six foot tall heavy set black man, as police describe, age 25-35, last seen wearing a plain gray shirt recently stabbed a six year old boy and seven year old girl in the cover of an elevator in their apartment building located in Brooklyn, East New York. The attacker then fled the scene and has not been found since. Prince Joshua, also known as PJ, six years of age, was stabbed in the torso and was pronounced dead on arrival. The female, seven years of age, with similar wounds, is currently in critical condition. Bill Bratton, New York Police Commissioner, reported the children were innocently on the way to get ice cream when this man stabbed them for no apparent reason. “We cannot have a city where two children going to get ice cream are stabbed, one killed and the other fighter for her life. That is not the City of New York that we want to police.”


I think that this is an absolutely horrible and disgusting event that has transpired. You should never stab anyone, let alone children! Especially because they are so completely innocent, they did not do anything towards this man, nor did they even know him. This man is a coward and a sick human being for doing what he did. Also, sadly, I’m wondering why the parents were not with these children at the time. Two children, ages six and seven, should not be allowed out on their own at that age, especially in a neighborhood like they live in. I hope that this murderer is caught and given life in prison as what he did was absolutely horrible and he should be punished as severely as possible.
