BOROUGH PARK — A man was stabbed to death on a Borough Park block Friday night, police said.

Police responded to a 911 call and found Obedo Tum, 28, with a severe stab wound in his stomach on 40th Street between 13th and 14th avenues, police said.

Rescuers responded and declared Tum dead at the scene, police said.

An argument led to a drunken fight in the Tum's apartment that spilled out to the street, according to the New York Post.

Police on Monday said Arcadio Perez, 49, Tum's neighbor, had been arrested in the stabbing, officials said.
