Who Stabbed Ezekiel McKoy on Easter Sunday?

There were two stabbing incidents in the city over the extended weekend…both on Easter Sunday. Sometime after two a.m., police found Ezekiel McKoy on Water Lane; he had been stabbed multiple times to the back, stomach and neck. Officers have since canvassed the area, but the investigation is coming up empty-handed. No relatives have come forward and McKoy remains on life support at the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital.

“And canvassing the area; nothing came out of it?”

Insp. Alejandro Cowo

“No, it’s very difficult. It was two o’clock in the morning; we have checked several businesses around there, we have interviewed a few persons, but up to now, nobody can provide us with information as to how that man sustained those injuries there.”
