Right near the Bowery Ballroom, a 20 year old man was found bleeding from a stab wound on Friday night; he died later at Bellevue. He had been found at 7:30PM Friday night by a Bowery Ballroom employee who thought the man was drunk at first but then called an ambulance. Police still haven't been able to ID the man, who only had $10 and a cellphone on him, though they hope the cellphone will help with that. Other than that, it's a mystery whether the man, who was wearing a Yankees jersey and "pricey jeans," was killed randomly or by someone who knew him. This is the first homicide for Precinct 5 this year.
