Last night, the body of a man who had been stabbed to death was discovered in his Forest Hills apartment in what WABC 7 says was a "very, very bloody scene." Friends and co-workers of the victim, who was in 30s, were alarmed when he hadn't shown up for work for a few days. So they asked his building super to check his apartment. The super, from the fire escape, peered in the man's apartment and saw the body in the 6th floor apartment. An 85-year-old neighbor told WCBS 2, "I feel sick, I feel sick. He was such a nice young fellow. Clean. And you should have seen the apartment, how he fixed it, with everything new," and added to the Daily News, "He was like a son to me." The News reports that the building's fire escapes are being investigated for clues.
