Ryan Carson fatally stabbed in NYC

DailyKenn.com — In today's video we're going to answer the questions, Who was Ryan Carson and why should we care that he was stabbed to death at 4 in the morning on Tuesday, Oct 3, 2023 in the Crown Heights area of Brooklyn in New York City.

Brian Dowling, 18, was charged with murder and criminal possession of a weapon.

Ryan Carson, age 32, was beloved community organizer or radical leftist activist, depending the the source.

Beloved community organizer, I suppose, could be something akin to called Nelson Mandela the world's most beloved terrorist.

Timesofindia.com reported that "Radical Leftist activist Ryan Carson was stabbed to death on a street in New York City. Ryan Carson was with his girlfriend at a bus stop when the black attacker accosted him."

The fatal stabbing took place at Lafayette Avenue and Malcolm X Boulevard and was captured on video.

He and his girlfriend were reportedly in the area after attending a wedding. Considering it was 4 in the morning, we're guessing they were enjoying a late night on the town after the wedding.

Here's an excerpt from a nypost.com report along with annotations:

Wearing a gray suit, Carson and the young woman, dressed in a blue, sleeveless gown, get up and begin to walk down the block, in the same direction as a man in a dark sweatshirt who had just strolled past the pair at the B38 bus stop, with his hood up over his head and his hands in his pockets.

Just feet ahead of them, the stranger begins kicking scooters parked near the curb for no apparent reason, the footage — obtained by The Post on Tuesday — shows.

Suddenly, the unhinged man turns to Carson and says, “What the f–k are you looking at?”

The beloved community activist — who replied that he wasn’t looking at anything — then stepped between his girlfriend and the irate stranger, who began to advance on the couple.

“I’ll kill you!” the maniac threatens as Carson pleads with him to “Chill! Chill!” and holds up his hand.

But the attacker pursues Carson, pulling a knife, as the victim’s girlfriend, running up behind them, is heard frantically yelling, “Please, please, please!”

As he runs, Carson tumbles over the bench the couple had earlier been sitting on.

The assailant then grabs his jacket and knocks him onto the ground, savagely stabbing him multiple times in the chest as the victim’s girlfriend catches up to them.

He then walks away as Carson lies curled up on the ground, before returning and approaching the terrified woman, who raises her hand to stop him.

The sicko spits on her — while still clutching the knife — before kicking the mortally wounded Carson and storming away.

An unknown woman then appears near the corner of the frame, yelling, “Don’t hurt him!” at the crazed man and repeating what sounds like the name “Brian” or “Bryan.”

Investigators believe that the woman and the suspect knew each other prior to the slaying, police sources said Tuesday.

“I’m so sorry!” the same woman exclaims as she approaches Carson, still lying on the sidewalk, as his worried girlfriend stands at his side.

“Go watch him,” the victim’s girlfriend directs the woman while pointing at the attacker.
