“Parents lost a child, a child, to something that was clearly a hate crime,” Mayor Eric Adams said Saturday during a news conference.
NEW YORK, NEW YORK - People gather at a gas station during a vigil to memorialize O'Shae Sibley on Friday, Aug. 4, 2023, in the Brooklyn borough of New York. Sibley, a gay man, was fatally stabbed at the gas station after a confrontation between a group of friends dancing to a Beyoncé song and several young men who taunted them.
The stabbing occurred after the two groups got into a confrontation at one of the gas pumps, where Sibley was dancing with his friends to a Beyoncé song. Authorities said Sibley’s group was being taunted by the other group before the confrontation ended in violence.Security camera video showed the two groups arguing for a few minutes. Both sides had walked away when Sibley and a friend abruptly returned and again confronted one of the young men, who had stayed behind recording on his phone.
Lee Soulja Simmons, the executive director for the NYC Center for Black Pride, also spoke at the news conference. “The fact that he was doing nothing more but voguing and dancing here, he did not deserve to die in that way,” Simmons said.
