“A 29-year-old Manhattan man... was knifed in an East Harlem scuffle”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
While there are reports of stabbings in East Harlem (one involving a 29-year-old migrant and another involving an indictment by DA Bragg), none of the provided evidence matches the specific details of a 29-year-old Manhattan man knifed in a 'scuffle' as described in the claim. The evidence describes a fatal stabbing of a migrant and a separate case involving a 62-year-old suspect.
