Awoman has been killed and her twin sister hospitalised after being stabbed for apparently rejecting a man’s advances inside a Brooklyn deli.

Samyia Spain and her sister Sanyia, both 19, were with a group of friends and relatives inside Slope Natural Plus on on Fourth Avenue and St Mark’s Place in Park Slope, New York City, at around 2.20am on Sunday, according to police and sources.

A witness said the attack happened when a man made a move on the two young women at the deli, and they rejected his advances.

“One of them guys complimented two girls, walked in with their friends, and they said, ‘no, we’re not attracted’ so he called them names. They called him names back. He walked out. He walked down the block angry,” the witness told NBC4.
“He walked away again, so they unlocked the door so everybody could leave. The second they opened the door, he ran back into the door and started attacking them,” the witness said.

Police said that Samyia was stabbed in the chest and died from her injuries, while her sister, Sanyia, was stabbed in the arm. She was transported to hospital where she remains in a stable condition.
The man and his friends were allegedly intoxicated and ran off after the attack, witnesses said.

So far, no arrests have been made. It is not clear if the victims were known to the attackers.
