YouTube Description
as posted by the channelA 17-year-old boy was busted in the deadly stabbing of a sleeping 39-year-old man just off Times Square — and disturbingly told police that he did it as part of a “mess with crackheads” TikTok trend, cops and law enforcement sources said.
The boy — who has not been identified because of his age — was picked up around 8 p.m. Wednesday and also faces a weapon possession rap in the Monday night knifing of Leonides Baez, 39, police said.
Officers were conducting a station inspection when they spotted the teen evading the fare and stopped him, according to law enforcement sources.
