WILLIAMSBURG — A 28-year-old man was stabbed with a glass bottle early Sunday morning during a confrontation with a group of eight men in Williamsburg, police said.

► A 95-year-old man was almost duped when three construction workers, who claimed they were from a company the victim had called to repair the roof of his Manhattan Avenue home in Williamsburg, distracted him and attempted to steal his safe on Feb. 28.
