Police investigat­e fatal stabbing in Glenbrook

STAMFORD — A man was fatally stabbed early Wednesday morning in Glenbrook, police said.

The identity of 42-year-old man, who died from wounds resulting from the stabbing, had not been released by police as of Wednesday evening, as officers were still in the process of notifying his next of kin.

Lt. Tom Scanlon said the stabbing, which has been ruled a homicide, was reported to police by a third party around 1:10 a.m.

Investigat­ors have since identified two crime scenes, one on Culloden Road and the other on Hamilton Avenue, according to Scanlon.

Scanlon said they believe the stabbing occurred on Culloden Road, thought he did not specify where on the street.

Police had portions of Hamilton Avenue near Culloden Road, where a white car sat with its doors open, taped off early Wednesday morning as they investigat­ed the scene.

It was in that area, police said, where a car carrying the injured man pulled up to a group of people and asked for help.

Two police were also seen parked further down the block in front of a home located at 150

Culloden Road on Wednesday. Police have not commented on the property’s connection to the investigat­ion.

“More informatio­n will be released as the investigat­ion progresses,” Scanlon said.

This is the fifth homicide of the year, according to Capt. Richard Conklin, commander of the Bureau

of Criminal Investigat­ions.

The last homicide in the city was the fatal shooting of 32-year-old Lwidji Brun at his Ursula Place home on May 18. Police have since made three arrests in that case.

Police have made arrests in all but one of this year’s homicides — the untimely death of a 56-year-old woman at the Stamford Manor apartment complex at 26 Main St. on April 20, which was only recently ruled a homicide.
