In a harrowing incident near Times Square, a brutal knife fight between two men has left the community in shock, Your Content has learned.

Jesus Ramirez, 28, and Guarionex Torres, 49, were involved in a tragic altercation that led to Torres losing his life. Despite prosecutors’ efforts to keep Ramirez in jail, he was released on bail from Rikers Island less than a day after the incident.

Ramirez, who knew Torres from their time in Times Square, claimed the altercation was an act of self-defense. However, the severity of the attack, which involved a knuckle knife blade, resulted in Torres being mutilated and losing his life.

The accused murderer faced charges of second-degree murder and weapon possession during a court appearance, where he pleaded self-defense. The judge granted his release on bail, requiring 10 percent of a $100,000 partially secured bond.
