MORRISANIA — A 21-year-old was stabbed to death and a second man was critically injured early Saturday on Third Avenue in The Bronx, police said.

Police said it's unclear if the knife attacks were related.

The 21-year-old man, whose name has not been released, was stabbed in the chest in the wake of an argument, police said.

He was found about 2:15 a.m. Saturday in front of 3405 Third Ave. EMS took him to Lincoln Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, according to the NYPD.

The second victim, a 22-year-old man, was found nearby at 3394 Third Ave., also with a knife wound to the chest. He remains at Lincoln Hospital in critical condition, officials said.
