BURGER KING MURDER
The stabbing happened around the corner from a Burger King where an employee was shot to death two months ago.
19-year-old cashier Kristal Bayron-Nieves was killed on Jan. 9, 2022.
Authorities say that Winston Glynn entered the Burger King on 116th Street off Lexington Avenue and pistol-whipped the manager and one of two customers in the restaurant. He then demanded money.
Bayron-Nieves gave him $100 but he still shot her in the stomach before stealing the manager's phone and taking off.
