A father is dead and his teenage son is recovering after a stabbing Sunday night in Sheepshead Bay.
The NYPD says Walid Noureldin, 51, was stabbed in the torso and later died at a hospital. Sources say he was working at the laundromat at the time of the stabbing. His 19-year-old son had a cut on his head but is expected to be okay.
A police source tells News 12 the violence may have started as an argument outside the laundromat before it spilled inside.
Video from the scene shows someone crying outside the laundromat. Officers blocked off the area overnight as crime scene teams collected evidence.
“It doesn’t feel safe. Nobody is,” said Allan, a neighbor. “This is a beautiful neighborhood… the ocean’s right here. I was supposed to do laundry here in a couple days.”
Police are searching for a driver who sped off in a sedan following the attack.
