A 25-year-old man was reportedly stabbed in the shoulder after being attacked at the Randall’s Island migrant shelter in New York City.

The New York Police Department (NYPD) confirmed to Fox News Digital that the man was stabbed by two residents of the migrant shelter at 8 p.m. on Friday evening.

Police said law enforcement arrested two suspects, identified as brothers Josue Deleon, 19, and Moises Deleon, 27. Both were charged with assault, police confirmed.

The latest incident comes after a series of attacks at the New York migrant shelter.

In April, five men were arrested by the New York Police Department after allegedly attacking another man in his bed, injuring a security guard during the fight.

The five men, aged between 20 and 33, were accused of beating another man while he was eating in his bed at the East 125th Street shelter shortly before 2 a.m.

The Migrant group surrounded the bed and hit and scratched the victim “all over the head and face” and on the legs, police said.

The five men are accused of third-degree assault and harassment.

In February, police arrested two more migrants at the same facility after they allegedly hit a different security guard in two altercations that same evening.
