Stab susp had domestic violence raps

- BY ELLEN MOYNIHAN, JOHN ANNESE AND JANON FISHER

The Bronx man accused trying to flee to the Dominican Republic after the near-fatal stabbing of his girlfriend Monday had a history of domestic violence against his ex-wife, former girlfriend and his parents, according to authoritie­s.

Wilson Rojas, 32, was arrested Monday at Kennedy Airport trying to board a flight out of the country as his girlfriend nearly bled out in her Allerton apartment.

She’s not the first woman he’s attacked, according to an indictment.

Rojas (inset) ignored a judge’s order to stay away from his wife after a 2014 incident.

“I am going to kill you,” he told his ex. “I don’t care about police. If you file a report against me, they’re going to find you in the river.”

He pleaded guilty to misdemeano­r criminal contempt and was ordered to stay away from the former spouse.

He also attacked his parents according to police, though details of that incident were not immediatel­y available.

That didn’t help his most recent ex-girlfriend, though.

Monday night, neighbors saw Rojas brooding on the front steps of the Allerton Ave. apartment building where the woman lives with her children.

“The two kids were there. He told me the little girl was covered in blood,” a neighbor, who asked not to be identified, said.

She said her husband heard a commotion and came out of their apartment to find the ex-girlfriend bleeding badly.

After Rojas fled the apartment, prosecutor­s say he called a mutual acquaintan­ce, telling her he was coming for her.

“You are responsibl­e for ruining my life,” he allegedly said. “[My girlfriend] left me because of you. I killed [her] and I’m going to come kill you. I am going to find and kill your husband and child, and I know where your son goes to day care.”

Rojas was arraigned Tuesday on 18 counts, including attempted murder, and ordered held without bail.
