Another Bronx resident has been arrested in connection to a fatal stabbing aboard a bus in October, according to a Monday dispatch report from the NYPD.
Anthony Johnson, 56, was taken into custody in regard to the Oct. 9 homicide of Lamont Barkley, 55.
According to police, at around 8:25 p.m., the NYPD responded to a call of a person stabbed inside of an MTA BX19 bus at the intersection of East 149th Street and Gerard Avenue.
Barkley, also a Bronx resident, was found with stab wounds to the torso, according to police, and was later pronounced dead at an area hospital.
