‘That’s a lot of blood,’ says witness to stabbing death on Harlem street

A 40-year-old man stabbed to death on a Harlem street stumbled down the block for several feet before collapsing on the sidewalk in a pool of his own blood, cops and horrified witnesses said Friday.

“He just staggered into a slump. People were just walking by him,” said one witness who saw the victim from her apartment window. The victim’s blood still stained the street Friday morning, said the witness, who wished not to be named.

“If I can see it from my window up here, that’s a lot of blood,” the woman said.

The victim, stabbed in the neck, was rushed by medics to Harlem Hospital but could not be saved. His name was not immediately released.

The fatal confrontation happened about 9:25 p.m. Thursday on W. 132nd St. near Lenox Ave., cops said.

A tourist renting a nearby AirBnB spotted the victim arguing with a group of men in a red car before the fight erupted.

“The [victim] was yelling at the guys in the car,” said the tourist, who would only identify himself as Stitch. “The guy that was yelling kicked the car, and once he did that they all ran at him and jumped him.”

The man who dealt the fatal blow crept up on the victim as he fought the other three men off, Stitch, 45, remembered.

“One of the guys came real stealthy around, it looked like he punched him in the neck,” he said. “The next thing you know, the blood starts pouring out of his neck.”

The suspects ran back to the red car and drove off. No arrests have been made. The victim had an extensive arrest record and served two state prison terms. He served six years for drug possession and was released in March 2016.Rocco
