Memorial for Barclays Center stabbing victim
A vigil was held in the Bronx for 27-year-old Michael Hernandez, who was fatally stabbed near the Barclays Center in Brooklyn last Friday night. Hernandez's mother and sister say Hernandez was attacked by a group before being stabbed multiple times. As the NYPD searches for suspects, his family is demanding justice and urging anyone with information to come forward. FOX 5 New York’s Kendall Green has the latest.
As Rentas was led out of the police precinct in handcuffs, Hernandez's mother, Marisol Miranda, was there to confront him and demand justice.
"I live in the Bronx and made it here to make sure that he sees my face. I'm a grieving mother. I love my kids, and I'm sure his mother loves him, but she's not grieving her kid like I grieve mine. She can see her kid, I can't see mine," Miranda said.
