Slashing At Golf Course 'Tee-Bar,' 2 Injured, Suspect Arrested

YORKTOWN, NY — Yorktown police say they arrested a 26-year-old Mahopac man for injuring two people at a lounge at a Westchester golf course over the weekend.

On Saturday, just before 11:30 p.m., an officer was flagged down by witnesses due to a possible stabbing at the Tee Bar & Grille.

Investigators believe Miftar Krasniqi hit a victim in the face causing an injury before attempting to flee the scene. While trying to exit the Tee Bar and Grille parking lot to the Service Road, police say that Krasniqi is accused of cutting a second victim who tried to stop his escape using "an edged weapon."

Krasniqi managed to flee the scene, according to police.

Both victims were taken to Westchester Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries and released.

The Yorktown Police Department was able to identify Krasniqi as the likely perpetrator at the scene.

An investigation with the Carmel Police Department, the Putnam County Sheriff's Office and the Westchester County Real Time Crime Center led to Krasniqi.

On Monday, Krasniqi voluntarily surrendered himself at the Yorktown Police Department. He was charged with felony assault and criminal possession of a weapon, along with misdemeanor assault. He was scheduled to be arraigned on Monday.
