Second person dead in wake of Sheepshead Bay restaurant hammer attack
Authorities confirmed Friday that a second victim has succumbed to his injuries after a hammer-wielding attacker smashed his way through a Sheepshead Bay restaurant earlier this week.
According to police, 34-year-old Arthur Martunovich entered Seaport Buffet at 2027 Emmons Ave. just after 5 p.m. on Tues., Jan. 15 brandishing a hammer, which he used to strike three employees before fleeing the scene.
Emergency Medical Services responded and rushed the three victims — all men, ages 60, 50 and 34 — to NYU Langone-Brooklyn where the youngest, Sheepshead Bay resident Fufai Pun, was pronounced dead.
