maksim gelman : Brooklyn police have begun a serious manhunt for 23 year-old Maksim Gelman who violently lashed out on Friday in a killing spree which resulted in the death of his stepfather, his ex-girlfriend, and her mother. Gelman is also wanted for “commandeering a passing car, stabbing the driver, stealing the car and running down a pedestrian” according to sources.
The trouble apparently began around 5 a.m. on Friday when Gelman arrived home “appearing to be drunk or high and demanded use of one of his parents' two cars” according to one neighbor’s report.
When Gelman’s stepfather, 54 year-old Aleksandr Kuznetsov, refused Gelman’s request, a violent argument broke out between the two. Police say Gelman, “grabbed a knife and stabbed his stepfather several times.”
