A 21-year-old man is dead, and a 30-year-old man is in critical condition, following a double stabbing at Dyker Beach Park in Brooklyn, New York, on Saturday.
The New York City Police Department (NYPD) told Fox News Digital officers responded to a 911 call just before 2 p.m. local time reporting that two men had been stabbed near the intersection of 86th Street and 14th Avenue, within the confines of the 68th precinct.
When police arrived, they found both victims with stab wounds to the bodies, officials said.

American rescue teams pull infant alive from rubble in Venezuela days after devastating twin earthquakes
American search-and-rescue teams pulled an infant alive from beneath the rubble in Venezuela days after the country's devastating earthquakes, the U.S. Department of State said Saturday.
The State Department shared video on social media showing U.S. personnel pulling the infant from the rubble as rescue crews continued searching for survivors more than 72 hours after two powerful earthquakes struck the South American country.
The infant was 9 months old and was rescued along with her mother, the State Department told Fox News Digital. Both suffered only minor injuries, according to the rescue team.
"This heroic rescue was carried out in Catia La Mar by the Fairfax County Urban Search and Rescue team (USA-01), which deployed to Venezuela on June 26 following activation by the State Department," a State Department spokesperson said.

The rescue comes as emergency crews race against time to locate survivors before the critical rescue window closes.
"Against impossible odds, hope endures," the State Department posted on X.
"American search and rescue teams rescued an infant from beneath the rubble following the earthquake in Venezuela," the post continued. "Every life saved is a victory."
The White House also shared the video, calling it "America at its best."
"Thank you to the American search and rescue teams providing assistance in Venezuela," the White House wrote.

According to The Associated Press, more than 68,000 people remain missing across the country.
Aid groups consider the first 48 to 72 hours after a disaster to be the most critical window for finding survivors, though access to food and water can extend that period.
Venezuelan officials said 17 flights carrying more than 1,600 rescue personnel had arrived Saturday to assist with search-and-rescue efforts.

The Buffalo Bills will not honor OJ Simpson at their new stadium, and you can probably figure out why
The Buffalo Bills are preparing to move into their brand-new stadium; however, one franchise legend will not be included among his fellow franchise greats at the new Highmark Stadium.
And I'll give you one guess as to who that is.
Yeah, it's O.J. Simpson... that was an easy one.
Despite his turbulent post-football life — which might be the understatement of the century — "the Juice," who died in 2024, was honored at the team's soon-to-be former stadium.
He played for the Bills from 1969 to 1977 before going into announcing, acting, and — allegedly, though he was acquitted in the eyes of the law the first time — other things.
But during that time, he was a superstar and led the league in rushing for four seasons and received all kinds of accolades.
So, it can be kind of tough to decide how to treat his complicated legacy, and at least at their new stadium, the Bills are drawing a very clear line in the sand: no Juice.
"We have made an organizational decision that he is not a fit to display inside our new stadium and Family Circle," Bills COO Pete Guelli said in a statement, per The Score.
Wait... the alleged double murderer who got thrown into the clink for stealing his own memorabilia isn't fit to display in your new stadium?
NY GOVERNOR KATHY HOCHUL TRIES TO GET BILLS CHANT GOING AT NEW STADIUM, COMPLETELY FAILS
WHAT?!
Not even a homage to post-jail O.J.? The one with a Twitter account? Who would just ride around in a golf cart, spinning yarns and giving out fantasy football advice?
Well, suit yourself...
Of course, that's the smart move. In this day and age, they couldn't unfurl an O.J. banner or bust in their new stadium without having to spend at least a couple of days in full-blown PR crisis mode.
And no one wants to do that.
But hey, we all know what he did on the field — and off it — whether the team puts him in their stadium or not.
Trump scores another endorsement win with Louisiana Senate runoff victory
He wasn't on the ballot, but President Donald Trump was a winner in Louisiana's GOP Senate runoff election.
That's because Trump-backed Rep. Julia Letlow defeated state Treasurer John Fleming to capture the Republican nomination, The Associated Press reported on Saturday.
Six weeks after denying Trump-targeted GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy a third six-year term in the Senate, a majority of Republican voters in the solidly red Gulf Coast state backed Letlow. Her victory in the runoff is seen as another victory for Trump as he works to fill the halls of Congress with loyal lawmakers for his final two years in the White House. And it's another sign of the power of a Trump endorsement in Republican primaries.
Five years after he voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial, Cassidy was sent packing.
WATCH: CASSIDY DETAILS NEW BEHIND CLOSED DOORS CLASH WITH TRUMP
Trump reacted to Letlow's victory in a Truth Social post, calling Saturday's result "great news."
"Julia Letlow WON in Louisiana, beating conclusively a very strong and smart opponent," Trump wrote. "Congratulations to Julia. She will be a truly GREAT Senator!"
Letlow, who was backed by Trump even before she entered the race in January, finished first in the primary, double digits ahead of Fleming, with Cassidy in third place. Since no candidate cracked 50% of the vote, Letlow and Fleming advanced to the runoff for the Republican nomination and Cassidy became the first elected Republican senator to lose renomination since Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana in 2012.
Trump, celebrating Cassidy's defeat, said on social media that "it’s nice to see that his political career is OVER!"
Cassidy, in a speech to supporters after conceding, took a jab at Trump, saying, "When you participate in democracy, sometimes it doesn't turn out the way you want it to. But you don't pout, you don't whine. You don't claim the election was stolen… You don't manufacture some excuse."
Letlow, who was backed by Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry, a top Trump ally, won her congressional seat in 2021, after her husband, Luke Letlow, died five days before being sworn into the U.S. House after his 2020 election victory for the seat she now holds. She highlighted her support from Trump throughout her Senate campaign.
Fleming, who spent eight years in Congress before serving as a White House deputy chief of staff during Trump’s first term, argued he was the most conservative candidate in the GOP Senate primary.
DEMOCRACY ’26: STAY UP TO DATE WITH THE FOX NEWS ELECTION HUB
Letlow will be considered the clear frontrunner in the midterm election against either farmer Jamie Davis or Navy veteran Gary Crockett, who are facing off in the Democratic Party runoff.
The brute force of the president's endorsement power has been on display in GOP primaries over the past two months, with his candidates ousting incumbents he targeted in showdowns in Indiana, Kentucky and Texas, as well as the Louisiana primary.
But Trump's endorsement streak in statewide and congressional Republican primaries was snapped three weeks ago when his last-minute endorsement of Republican Rep. Randy Feenstra of Iowa in the race to succeed retiring GOP Gov. Kim Reynolds wasn't enough to propel the three-term congressman to victory.
Feenstra was narrowly edged by Zach Lahn, a businessman, farmer and former political strategist who was backed by the political wings of MAHA — the acronym for the Make America Healthy Again movement aligned with Trump's Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. — and Turning Point USA, the powerful conservative organization co-founded by the late Charlie Kirk.
The president rebounded three weeks ago in South Carolina, as Trump-backed Lt. Gov. Pam Evette finished first in the GOP gubernatorial primary and longtime Trump ally Sen. Lindsey Graham won a majority of the vote in the Republican Senate primary, and avoided a runoff.
Graham, who was endorsed by Trump, was facing primary challenges from five candidates, including conservative businessman Mark Lynch, who took aim at the senator over his support for the war in Iran. Lynch was backed by some MAGA leaders who have been critical of the president.
Two weeks ago, Trump-backed candidates won two of the three top races in Georgia and Alabama, with the one setback coming against a billionaire businessman who shelled out over $100 million of his own money to boost his campaign.
Rep. Barry Moore, a House Freedom Caucus member and longtime Trump supporter who was endorsed by the president, comfortably defeated rival Jared Hudson, a former Navy SEAL sniper who was supported by some top names on the right, in solidly red Alabama's GOP Senate runoff.
In battleground Georgia's Republican Senate runoff, an 11th-hour endorsement by Trump helped boost Rep. Mike Collins, a MAGA champion, to victory over former college football coach Derek Dooley, who was backed by popular conservative Gov. Brian Kemp.
TRUMP'S ENDORSEMENT FAILS TO SAVE MAGA CANDIDATE AS BILLIONAIRE ADVANCES IN KEY GOVERNOR RACE
Collins will face Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff in the general election in a race that's among a handful that will likely decide if the GOP holds its slim majority in the chamber in the midterms.
But in Georgia's GOP gubernatorial runoff, the candidate Trump backed, Lt. Gov. Burt Jones, who was also endorsed by Kemp this past weekend, was defeated by billionaire businessman Rick Jackson, who ran as an outsider.
On Tuesday, Trump-backed first-time candidate Anthony Constantino, a businessman and former boxer, defeated Robert Smullen, a retired Marine Corps colonel and New York Assembly member who had the backing of the state party, in the upstate New York race to succeed retiring GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik.
Meanwhile, in South Carolina's Republican gubernatorial runoff, Trump couldn't lose.
That's because, besides backing Evette, he also gave a last-minute endorsement to state Attorney General Alan Wilson, who ended up winning the showdown in a landslide.
Michelle Pfeiffer says she felt 'humiliated' following her audition for her breakthrough role in 'Grease 2'
Michelle Pfeiffer has revealed how she landed her first big role in "Grease 2," and it was an awkward start to a legendary Hollywood career.
During a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, the 68-year-old actress discussed her breakthrough role, and why she said that she felt "humiliated" after first auditioning for the part. She explained that going into the audition, she "had zero expectations of landing this part," but was sent by her agents "just for the experience."
"It was such a cattle call — there were actors and dancers and singers everywhere hanging out, coming in and out auditioning, and there were very thin walls," she said. "All the other actors waiting to go in could hear your reading, could hear your singing. I was not a singer. I was taking voice classes to really improve my stage voice at the recommendation of my acting coach. And I certainly was not a dancer."
After the singing portion of the audition was over, Pfeiffer then had to undergo the dance portion, describing it as what "you see in the movies," where people form lines behind each other, with each line taking turns performing in the front row.
Pfeiffer lacked confidence in her dancing abilities, and "kept moving further to the back," eventually ending up in the last row, adding that she "stumbled my way through because I couldn't remember the choreography."
"I left with my tail between my legs, feeling so humiliated," Pfeiffer said. "And somebody's assistant, I think it was [director] Pat Birch's assistant, ran after me across the Paramount studio lot. I said something about being really embarrassed, and she said, 'Well, you shouldn't be because she wants you to come back tomorrow.'"
Ultimately, Pfeiffer landed the lead role of Stephanie Zinone, the head of the Pink Ladies, in the 1982 movie. As opposed to the first film, where a good girl falls for a bad boy, the sequel turns the concept upside down, with Pfeiffer playing the bad girl who falls for a good boy.

While Pfeiffer felt less than confident in her singing abilities, many fans of the film still look back fondly on her performance of the song "Cool Rider" in the movie.
She later found greater success starring opposite Al Pacino in "Scarface," and later earned three back-to-back Academy Award nominations for her roles in "Married to the Mob," "Dangerous Liaisons" and "The Fabulous Baker Boys."
More recently, the actress starred in both "Margo's Got Money Troubles" and Taylor Sheridan's "The Madison."
"[Taylor] wanted to know who Stacy was before he started writing. I wanted to know who Stacy is before I committed. And so we went back and forth like that for a little while, and it became clear to me I wasn’t going to win this battle," Pfeiffer told The Hollywood Reporter in March. "So I asked Helen Mirren [who previously starred in Sheridan's "Yellowstone" spin-off "1923"] to speak to me about her experience."

"And she just glowed; she couldn’t say enough nice things," Pfeiffer recalled. "She said the scripts were great, the productions were perfect. She was having the time of her life; she loved Montana. So I took a big leap of faith, and I committed. I thought, 'Well, the guy has a pretty darn good track record.'"
Iyo Sky wins Queen of the Ring at WWE Night of Champions, picks her SummerSlam opponent
Iyo Sky and Liv Morgan met in the Queen of the Ring final on Saturday at Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia with the opportunity of a championship match at SummerSlam.
Morgan had the benefit of already being the women’s world champion going into the match. If she won, she would earn a shot at Rhea Ripley's WWE Women’s Championship at SummerSlam in August. If Sky won, she would need to choose between Morgan and Ripley.

Unfortunately for Morgan, Danhausen addressed the champion and put a "curse" on her. Morgan and her Judgment Day cronies tried to bribe Danhausen to put curses on their opponents. When Morgan told Danhausen he owed them money, Danhausen brushed it off and put the hex on her. Morgan responded with a slap and brush off of the voodoo.
As the match started and progressed through the night, the WWE Universe may have really started to buy into the curse. Morgan did her best to try to put Sky away. She went to the high-rent district but Sky got up and countered.

Sky hit Morgan with a Spanish Fly and then set her up for the Over the Moonsault. She nailed it perfectly and pinned Morgan for the victory.
Sky is the Queen of the Ring.
She spoke to Byron Saxton after the match and wasted no time declaring her intentions to go after the Women’s World Championship.
"Liv, I’ll see you at SummerSlam," Sky said.
Just like that, Sky vs. Morgan was the first match set for SummerSlam. The two-day event takes place at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis on Aug. 1 and 2.
Sky has already held the WWE Women’s Championship and the Women’s World Championship one time each. A win in August would make her a three-time champion.
Louisiana Democrats pick rural farmer to challenge GOP in uphill Senate bid
Jamie Davis, a farmer and former parish official from rural northeast Louisiana, is the Democratic Party's Senate nominee in reliably red Louisiana.
Davis defeated Gary Crockett, a business owner in New Orleans, in Saturday's Democratic Senate runoff election, The Associated Press reported, in the race to succeed Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy.
Davis, who was heavily favored in the runoff thanks to support from the state party and his massive campaign cash and staff advantage over Crockett, will now face an extremely steep uphill climb as he tries to become the first Louisiana Democrat in 18 years to win a Senate election.

Oba Femi wins King of the Ring final at WWE Night of Champions, earns title shot at SummerSlam
Oba Femi and Jey Uso started Night of Champions with their King of the Ring final match on Saturday in Saudi Arabia.
The winner of the match would get a title shot of their choosing at SummerSlam. Femi, who seemingly had Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns on his mind going into the match, battled with Uso the entire night. Uso was hoping to win the match and face the undisputed WWE champion and thus bring another world title back to The Bloodline.

Uso gave every ounce of effort he had in trying to get Femi on his back. He did so toward the end of the match with multiple thrust kicks, a running shoulder block to Femi’s midsection, a spear and an Uso Splash. But it was far from enough to put "The Ruler" away.
Uso’s conquest proved to be futile.
Femi regained control, tossing Uso to the mat with his brute strength. Femi hit Fall from Grace and pinned Uso to win the match and become the King of the Ring.

"It feels so good to go from ‘The Ruler’ to being the king," Femi said in his post-match promo. "Jey Uso did not understand what he was up against tonight. He thought he was just fighting one man. You might be able to beat one man but you can’t beat fate and you can’t beat destiny and most importantly, you can’t beat me.
"I am the ruler, the destroyer, the bringer of war, the mountain that you cannot climb, the mountain that you cannot conquer, the one-of-one, the beast slayer, the one, the chosen one, the king of the ring, Oba Femi!"
Femi will now have to decide who he is going to go after.
Reigns might make the best choice since the two are Raw superstars. But Sami Zayn won the Undisputed WWE Championship in a triple-threat match over Cody Rhodes and Gunther later in the night.
SummerSlam is set for Aug. 1 and 2.
Judge rules Republican with same name as Sen Dan Sullivan can stay on Alaska primary ballot
A judge ruled on Friday that another man running as a Republican, who shares the same name as Republican U.S. Sen. Dan Sullivan, is eligible to run against him in the August primary in Alaska.
Superior Court Judge Thomas Matthews’ ruling overturns a decision made by Division of Elections Director Carol Beecher earlier this month to disqualify the second Sullivan from the ballot.
Matthews on Friday ruled that Beecher didn’t follow the Constitution, Alaska law or the division’s own regulations when deciding to disqualify Sullivan.
"Instead, the decision was based upon a new, previously unstated, ‘good faith’ criteria," the judge wrote.
In her determination, Beecher said that Dan J. Sullivan, a retired teacher who recently changed his party affiliation to the GOP, did not launch his campaign "in good faith," and sought to "confuse or mislead" voters at the ballot box.
The Republican senator is seeking a third term in the state.
SAME-NAME CANDIDATE DISQUALIFIED FROM KEY SENATE RACE OVER ALLEGED DEM SCHEME TO CONFUSE VOTERS
Democrats are hoping that former Rep. Mary Peltola, D-Alaska, whom Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., helped recruit into the race, will unseat him in November.
Alaska is one of several states that are expected to be competitive as both parties vie for control of the Senate.
The Division of Elections told The Associated Press on Saturday that it plans to appeal the decision to the state Supreme Court.
The deadline for a final ruling is Tuesday so that ballots for the Aug. 18 primary can be printed on time, state attorneys have said.
The senator previously told Fox News Digital that he believes Dan J. Sullivan is a Democrat plant.
BEHIND-THE-SCENES BATTLES: LEGAL CHALLENGES THAT COULD IMPACT THE VOTE BEFORE ELECTION DAY BEGINS,
"His primary purpose is not to win an election, it's to confuse Alaskans and rig the vote for my opponent, the Democrat," Sullivan said. "He's not in it to win it. He's in it to rig it."
The name confusion could prove particularly consequential in Alaska given its ranked-choice voting system, where voters list candidates in order of preference.
If Dan J. Sullivan is allowed to stay on the primary ballot, both he and incumbent Dan S. Sullivan could advance to the general election in which the top four vote-getters will appear.
Dan J. Sullivan’s attorneys have argued that there are only three qualifications to run for the Senate in the Constitution: age, citizenship and residency.
PRESIDENT TRUMP STRESSES IMPORTANCE OF MIDETERM ELECTION TURNOUT
He also previously said that sharing a name with the senator gave him an "instant megaphone," but he had grown frustrated with the lawmaker and had been considering his own run for some time.
The Division of Elections, however, argued that it’s not required to put him on the ballot and find a way to make it less confusing for voters.
"The Constitution does not require States to place a sham candidate on the ballot and then attempt to mitigate the damage through design choices," attorney Rachel Witty, of the Alaska Department of Law, and outside attorneys Christopher Murray and Michael Francisco wrote in court filings.
Attorneys for the challenger Sullivan argued that the Constitution lays out three exclusive qualifications for the Senate, addressing only age, citizenship and residency, and claimed Beecher didn't have the right to kick him off the ballot.
