A 16-year-old was stabbed to death during a fight inside a neighborhood deli in the Bronx, authorities say.
Aliyah Williams’ family says they believe the girl was lured to the spot on Boston Road in Williamsbridge around 4 p.m. Tuesday. They say they have no idea why someone would target her. Law enforcement sources say there was an argument, and Aliyah allegedly threw water at another girl. That girl pulled out a knife, sources say.
Aliyah, who lived a short walk from the scene where she lost her life, suffered stab wounds to her head and her body. Her grandmother is distraught.
“She’s a beautiful kid, nice child — good behaving, too,” Rose Anderson said. “It’s said, really sad, to take someone’s life like that.”
No weapon has been recovered, and no arrests have been made. Police were searching under cars and in storm drains in the area as they conducted their investigation.
Meanwhile, the neighborhood is shaking its collective head at the violence.
“Is it that serious that I have to kill you? To get a point across?” asked neighbor Brian Jenkins.
