Here are the top stories in Brooklyn today:

1. The NYPD are questioning a 20-year-old man in connection with a deadly double stabbing in Brooklyn on Saturday night. Two security guards were attacked at an event they were working in Gowanus, leaving the 25-year-old victim dead from a knife wound to his chest. Sources familiar with the case said that the suspect got into a heated argument with the security guards while trying to gain access to the party, and proceeded to pull out a sharp object and attack the two men.
