School aide who briefly served as NYPD officer arrested in fatal stabbing of Brooklyn jogger
Police say the attack appears random, and investigators have not found a motive as the 28-year-old victim died days later.
- On Saturday, the NYPD arrested Sayed Mohassib, 27, a Department of Education employee and former police officer, charging him with second-degree murder in the October 30 stabbing death of Brooklyn jogger Katie Suarez, 28.
- Suarez was attacked while running along the Shore Parkway Greenway in Bath Beach on October 30, with investigators characterizing the fatal stabbing as a random, unprovoked incident that occurred shortly after she spoke with her father by phone.
- Surveillance footage from near the path helped detectives track Mohassib, who reportedly told officers he could not recall the attack but claimed he woke up covered in blood while carrying a knife.
- Following the death, community members held vigils for Suarez, with local officials demanding increased patrols, security cameras, and lighting along the remote waterfront path to improve safety.
- Investigators are continuing their search for the suspected murder weapon, with authorities scouring a sanitation barge in New Jersey and reviewing dashcam footage from the evening of the attack.
