Defendant Allegedly Attacked Victim After Being Asked to Leave
Bronx District Attorney Darcel D. Clark today announced that a Manhattan man has been indicted for Murder, Manslaughter, and related charges in the fatal stabbing of a man in a Grand Concourse apartment building lobby.
District Attorney Clark said, “This heinous, brutal attack and was caught on camera. We will seek justice for the victim.”
District Attorney Clark said Dynus Saxon, AKA Isaiah James Bennett, 20, of Lexington Avenue, Manhattan, a fashion model, was indicted on second-degree Murder, first-degree Manslaughter, and fourth-degree Criminal Possession of a Weapon. He was arraigned on December 3, 2024, before Bronx Supreme Court Justice Brenda Rivera. He was remanded and is due back in court on April 3, 2025.
According to the investigation, on the afternoon of November 10, 2024, inside 384 Grand Concourse, the defendant allegedly repeatedly stabbed Kadeem Grant, 35 with a knife. Video surveillance in the building allegedly shows Saxon stabbing Grant in the neck and body, then repeatedly punching, kicking, and stomping him. The defendant then plunged the knife into the victim’s chest. Grant was pronounced dead at the New York Health + Hospitals Lincoln. Saxon sustained cuts to his hand during the stabbing.
The incident occurred when the victim and the defendant who allegedly did not know each other both went to visit the same tenant in the building and the defendant was told to leave the building.
District Attorney Clark thanked NYPD Detectives Rossi Mata, Charlie Viera, Mariusz Jasiurkowski and Bismal Tineo, of the 40th Precinct Squad and NYPD Detective Faton Alickaj of Bronx Homicide.
An indictment is an accusatory instrument and not proof of a defendant’s guilt.
