Prosecutor: No Arrests in Red Bank Stabbing Death

One man is dead and another hospitalized in Jersey Shore Medical Center in Neptune following an early morning stabbing attack in Red Bank, Monmouth County First Assistant Prosecutor Richard Incremona said Sunday afternoon.

No arrests have been made in the attack and police are still trying to identify a suspect or suspects, he said.

At just after 4 a.m. Sunday morning, police responded to 9 Bank Street following calls from neighbors and found two unidentified men suffering from significant stab wounds. The men were treated on scene and transported to the Neptune hospital, where one of the two men was pronounced dead on arrival.

Incremona declined to release the identity of the deceased saying that the family has yet to be notified. She said the stabbing occurred following a confrontation between two men, though Incremona declined to speculate on a cause of the attack.

As of late Sunday morning, Red Bank police and Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office detectives remained on the scene, snapping photos and taking statements from neighbors. The glass front door of 9 Bank Street was smashed, as was another front window.

Incremona said detectives have yet to identify a suspect or suspects in the attack, saying that police have no name or description to provide. Any and all information about the incident should be directed to the Red Bank Police Department, he said.

Though details about the attack and its provocation remain limited, Incremona did say that the two men who were stabbed Sunday morning are not responsible for each other’s injuries.

There is no official cause of death, Incremona said, pending an autopsy, which has yet to be conducted.

Bank Street resident Toni Brown identified Yarbrough as the victim.

"He was a good guy," she said. "You know, all I heard was that he got into a confrontation and things got bad."

Brown said she did not have additional information about the incident and how the altercation went down but that she could confirm that Yarbrough was killed.

Several Yarbrough's have listed addresses in Red Bank, including a Katherleen Yarbrough who lives on Bank Street. Calls to the Bank Street Yarbrough residence were not answered Sunday morning.

Investigators remain on scene as of Sunday afternoon.
