Brooklyn 'cannibal kills and eats his father' in one of five shocking NYC homicides in just 24 hours
2020-04-16
As is so often the case, there is more to the story than appears in the headline:
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • In the past 24 hours there has been a shooting in Queens, another in Staten Island, a stabbing and a beating with a baseball bat in the Bronx

  • One man who was apprehended was accused of stabbing and mutilating his own father before eating him

  • 26-year-old Khaled Ahmad allegedly went into a bagel shop in Dyker Heights at around 4.20am on April 15 and told police there he had killed his father

  • No suspects have been caught in the other four other homicides

  • So far, police have investigated 79 homicides this year which is only three fewer than 82 that had occurred during the same period of time last year

Officers then decided to conduct a welfare check and found 57-year-old Imad Ahmad, unconscious and unresponsive, with multiple stab wounds to his body. His body had also been 'dismembered and eviscerated,' according to the criminal complaint.

26-year-old Ahmad was said by police to have been unemployed and had a history of being emotionally disturbed.

#6  6-year-old Khaled Ahmad allegedly went into a bagel shop in Dyker Heights at around 4.20am on April 15 and told police

That rules out insanity. He knew the NY police could only be found in a bagel shop at that hour.
