A Manhattan man was stabbed to death and his brother was injured in a fight that broke out in a Harlem fish market over stolen shrimp last month, and the entire incident was caught on dramatic surveillance footage.<\/p>\n

The video, which was obtained exclusively by The Post, shows Robert “Bobby” Burrell, 29, and his brother Malik Burrell, 25, storming behind the counter and throwing a chair at the staff of Fish Express Fish Market on February 21.<\/p>\n

The younger Burrell is then viciously stabbed by the fishmonger, Junior Aquino Hernandez, as he and his brother flee the store.<\/p>\n

While his brother was transferred to the hospital in stable condition, Malik Burrell eventually died from his injuries.<\/p>\n

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg first charged Hernandez, 34, with murder in the fracas but later withdrew the charges pending additional investigation.<\/p>\n

Hernandez, a married father of four who claims he acted in self-defense, is still scheduled to appear in court on April 4 to face assault charges related to the incident.<\/p>\n

Bobby Burrell entered the store to purchase shrimp for a birthday feast but got into an argument with a fish market employee, leading to fatal consequences.<\/p>\n

The man is shown on video trying to leave the store with a bag of shrimp, but two employees are able to stop him. He then swings at one of the employees before running away.<\/p>\n

But, the footage shows him coming back to the store with his younger brother, storming in and behind the counter, where they throw a chair and fight with employees.<\/p>\n

After that, Hernandez is seen stabbing the two with the knife.<\/p>\n

As a result of the event, charges of assault and burglary were brought against Bobby Burrell.<\/p>\n

Robert Burrell Sr. denied the allegations that his son had attempted to take shrimp from a local market.<\/p>\n

I know damn well my sons aren’t stealing nothing,” he claimed after the event. They’re well-off. They have cash on hand and also have money on their cash app.<\/p>\n

The accusation that he attempted theft is just ridiculous.<\/p>\n

Uncanny parallels could be drawn between this case and the homicide of Austin Simon, a musician, on July 1 by 61-year-old bodega worker Jose Alba in Manhattan.<\/p>\n
