Nassau Man Attacked, Stabbed Another Outside Bar: Police

A Wyandanch man was arrested on Sunday and charged with assault after police say he attacked a man outside of a Hempstead bar and stabbed him.

According to police, a 20-year-old man got into a fight with Wils Lamonge, 21, of Mound Avenue, inside of Ole Bar, located at 774 Fulton Ave. in Hempstead. Lamonge was escorted out of the bar, police said. A short time later, the man left the bar and walked east on Fulton Avenue.

Outside, police say he was approached by Lamonge near Ducan Road. Lamonge pushed the man to the ground, police said, and began to punch him. Lamonge then took out a small knife and stabbed the man, puncturing his lung, police said. After the attack, police say Lamonge fled the scene.

The man was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment. After an investigation, police say they arrested Lamonge without incident.

Lamonge is charged with first-degree assault and fourth-degree possession of a dangerous weapon. He is scheduled to be arraigned on Monday in First District Court in Hempstead.
