NEW YORK, NY – A Maspeth man has been indicted for stabbing and killing a 55-year-old man across the street from a bar in Queens on September 19th.
Olmedo Osorio, 46, was indicted today by a Queens grand jury for the stabbing on the charge of murder. Osorio is facing other charges related to the incident.
According to police, “At approximately 2:40 a.m., the defendant became involved in a dispute with the victim Freddy Jimenez at a bus stop near the intersection of 69th Street and Roosevelt Avenue. The defendant stabbed the victim multiple times with a knife then left the scene. Police later recovered a knife from a backyard nearby.”
District Attorney Katz said, “As alleged, the defendant viciously took the life of another man over little more than a heated exchange of words on the street. We will not tolerate violence infiltrating our daily interactions and destroying of our sense of public safety in Queens county. He has been indicted and now faces justice in our courts.”
