Chaim Shapiro – Yeshiva World News
A family already shattered by previous tragedy is sadly mourning once again.
A 23-year-old Orthodox Jewish man was stabbed to death by his neighbor after he had blocked the victim’s driveway, Sunday night / early Monday morning.
Sources tell YWN that two Orthodox Jewish brothers were stabbed outside their home located at 1261 East 73 Street in the Bergen-Beach section of Brooklyn.
Omari Dahan, 23, was stabbed in the chest at 11:30PM Sunday night, and was pronounced dead at Beth Israel Hospital. The (unnamed) brother was stabbed in the arm, and was in stable condition.
Police say the attacker had blocked their driveway, and after the brothers had honked their car horn for some time, the man walked out of his ex-wife’s home, and attacked the brothers.
Police said the attacker fled the scene in a gray Volkswagen Jetta. No arrests have been made.
Volunteers from the Misaskim organization have been on the scene for hours, and have volunteers placed at the hospital as well – working closely with the NYPD as well as the NYC Medical Examiner to ensure proper Kavod Hames.
In a sad twist to this story, the father and brother of the stabbing victim were both killed in a terrible accident at a waste transfer station in Queens in 2009.
Shlomo Dahan OBM, 49, had died in a desperate attempt to rescue his 23-year-old son Harel Dahan OBM from the deadly fumes of an 18-foot-deep cesspool at a Queens sewage plant where they were working.
A third man, Rene Francisco Rivas, was killed when he went after the elder Dahan.
Levaya information will be published when it becomes available.
Baruch Dayan Ha’emes.
his visit with his ex anyway, and someone from the street starts blaring their horn or shouting, the weapon he might have used on his wife was possibly redirected to this new problem. He was likely not in a rational state of mind as is. Foreign neighbors & really everyone needs to be dealt with carefully. Some people could turn dangerous as in this case, tragically. משיח עכשיו!
People block driveways all the time. Don’t even argue if he refuse to move , call the cops and let them deal with it
Why has no arrest been made ? If its known that the attacker was the former husband of the neighbor it doesn’t need a rocket scientist to arraign him.
arrest the guy
BDE
and btw the guy was arrested at the airport where he was trying to flee
We must ask Hashem to end this Golus
we must try our best.
Don’t blame the victim because “he didn’t walk away.”
I totally agree with #3.
all I can say is to do more Chesed in the name of this neshama. MOSHIACH NOW, AD MOSSAI
Please please just walk away from all conflicts with those from other cultures. NOTHING is worth your life, even when you are 100% in the right. Such a terrible tragedy.
Old age is sad.
This is TRAGIC.
We need Moshiach to get us out of this horrible Golus NOW.
Sooooo Sad!!!!! Moshiach Now!!!!
