Jersey City Police Release Image Of Air Jordan Stabbing Suspect

Last Friday, we told you about all the insanity surrounding the release of the latest iteration of the Air Jordan. One incident left a man stabbed seven times and passing in and out of consciousness. He was rushed to Jersey City Medical Center where he was treated for non-life threatening wounds. According to Jersey City police, the man on the left is the suspected stabber.

At the hospital, the victim told police that he was in line to buy the Nike Air Jordan XI Concords at Foot Locker inside the mall when he got into an argument with another man in line, reports said. When they began to fight, four to six other men joined the attack on the victim, reports said.

The Duncan Avenue man said he thought he was being punched but realized he was being stabbed with knives, reports said.

The victim was stabbed in the back, shoulder, leg and arm, but he managed to get away, staggered out of the mall and collapsed near the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail station, reports said.

Police have now released surveillance footage of the approximately 18 year old, Hispanic male suspect and are requesting anyone with information call (201) 547-JAIL.
