BROOKLYN — A man was killed and another was stabbed in the back after a fight inside a Coney Island McDonald's spilled onto a street corner Easter Sunday, sources said.

The two men, neither of whose identities were immediately released, had been inside the fast-food restaurant at the corner of Stillwell and Mermaid avenues when the fight erupted just before 11 p.m., sources said.

In the melee, a 20-year-old man was stabbed in the gut and another man was stabbed in the lower back, police said. The 20-year-old was pronounced dead at Coney Island Hospital, police said.

The second man, whose age was not released, was in stable condition at Lutheran hospital, the NYPD said.

The relationship between the two men was not immediately clear, police said.

Investigators were still trying Monday morning to determine how many people were involved in the fight and what sparked it, the NYPD said.
