Recently parolee arrested for fatal stabbing in Concourse
BY ROBBIE SEQUEIRA
The NYPD has apprehended
a recently-paroled
suspect involved in the fatal
stabbing of a 49-year-old man
in an apartment building in
Concourse on Jan. 5.
According to police,
around 12 p.m., 49-year-old
Tyrone Chambers — who
is listed as a resident of 1783
Madison Ave., in Harlem —
was found by offi cers on the
living room fl oor of an apartment
unit at 1277 Morris Ave.,
with multiple stab wounds.
Police told the Bronx
Times on Thursday, Jan. 6,
that they were alerted about
the incident when a caseworker
in the building spotted
a trail of blood in the hallway
and called 911. The trail
of blood led police to a man —
identifi ed as a recent parolee,
51-year-old Thomas enahan,
who lived in a separate apartment
and was found with
blood on his hands, according
to police sources.
Lenahan was arrested
previously in 1988 for an attempted
murder charge,
when police allege that he
shot a Brooklyn man in the
stomach. He was again arrested
for murder, this time
in 1989, when he was accused
of bludgeoning a man
to death with a baseball bat
in 1987.
Records show that Lenahan
has served a total of fi ve
prison stints, with convictions
ranging from murder,
attempted assault and criminal
conviction. Lenahan
was most recently paroled
on Nov. 21, serving three-tofi
ve years on drug charges,
including promoting prison
contraband.
According to police, the
two men knew each other,
however, it’s unclear what
sparked the violent altercation.
Chambers, the victim,
also had a prior arrest, but
for selling drugs in January
2015.
According to police, Lenahan,
who is facing three
counts of murder, manslaughter
and criminal possession
of a weapon, is under
police custody and supervision,
was subsequently taken
to a nearby hospital to attend
to cuts on his hand.
The investigation remains
ongoing at this time, police
said. Photo courtesy Getty
