A 67-year-old man has died three weeks after being severely injured in a violence clash on grounds of the George Washington Carver Houses complex in East Harlem, the NYPD said.
Edwin Jimenez, who lived on East 115th Street, suffered head injuries in an Aug. 24 clash in front of 220 E. 102 St., and died on Friday, the NYPD said.
Jose Santiago, 52, another resident of the neighborhood, sustained multiple stab wounds during the encounter, police said.
Both men were arrested at the time and charged with assault; Santiago faced a weapons charge as well.
The medical examiner’s office has not yet released the cause of death, according to the NYPD, whose investigation continues.
