Accident – Death – Obituary News : Triple Fatal Stabbing in the Bronx

The 19-year-old son of a victim killed in Sunday’s triple fatal stabbing in the Bronx has been charged with their murders, the NYPD said.

According to police, Jayden Rivera was arrested Wednesday evening, three days after a 5-year-old boy, his 33-year-old mother, and his 38-year-old father were found stabbed to death inside an apartment in Mott Haven.

Jayden Rivera is facing charges of murder-multiple victims, murder-intention, manslaughter, and criminal possession of a weapon.



According to the New York Post, Jayden, the son of Jonathan Rivera, 38, checked into the Westchester County Medical Center in Valhalla following the murders.

Police responded to a 911 call just before 7 a.m. at 674 E. 136th St., where they found Jonathan with stab wounds to the torso in the first-floor hallway.


According to police, the man’s body was discovered by neighbors earlier that morning.

“I opened my door to go to work and the body was there,” one tenant told FOX 5 NY’s Michelle Ross.

Officials made another gruesome discovery when they entered the apartment and found the lifeless bodies of the 5-year-old boy, identified as Kayden Rivera, and the 33-year-old mother, identified as Hanoi Peralta, both with stab wounds.

A neighbor who also lived on the first floor said he heard a commotion in the hallway the night before.

“There was a scuffle or something going on in the hallway,” the neighbor, Fernando Cruz, said. “I know I heard that, and then I heard a woman screaming.”

Jonathan Rivera, a 38-year-old maintenance worker at a nearby daycare center, was one of the victims. His employer described him as a dedicated worker and a loving father.

The New York Post also reported that the couple, along with their 5-year-old son, were on a date night just hours before they were brutally killed.

THE BRONX – The New York Police Department (NYPD) has charged a 19-year-old man, Jayden Rivera, with the murders of his 33-year-old mother, 38-year-old father, and 5-year-old brother in a triple fatal stabbing incident that occurred in the Bronx on Sunday. The victims were found lifeless inside their Mott Haven apartment, with stab wounds to their bodies.

The arrest of Jayden Rivera took place on Wednesday evening, three days after the horrific discovery was made. The NYPD has accused him of murder-multiple victims, murder-intention, manslaughter, and criminal possession of a weapon. The motive behind the tragic incident is yet to be determined.

According to the New York Post, Jayden, the son of Jonathan Rivera, was admitted to the Westchester County Medical Center in Valhalla following the murders. It is unclear whether he sustained any injuries or required medical attention.

The incident came to light when police responded to a 911 call shortly before 7 a.m. on Sunday. They discovered Jonathan Rivera’s lifeless body in the first-floor hallway, suffering from stab wounds to the torso. Neighbors had reported finding the body earlier in the morning.

One tenant, who wished to remain anonymous, recounted the shocking discovery, stating, “I opened my door to go to work and the body was there.” The scene became even more horrific when authorities entered the apartment and discovered the lifeless bodies of the 5-year-old boy, Kayden Rivera, and his mother, Hanoi Peralta, also with stab wounds.

Fernando Cruz, a neighbor who resided on the first floor, recalled hearing a commotion and a woman screaming the night before. He said, “There was a scuffle or something going on in the hallway. I know I heard that, and then I heard a woman screaming.”

Jonathan Rivera, the 38-year-old victim, worked as a maintenance worker at a nearby daycare center. His employer described him as a dedicated employee and a loving father. The couple, along with their 5-year-old son, had been enjoying a date night just hours before the horrifying incident took place.

The arrest of Jayden Rivera has brought some closure to the community, but the investigation into the motive and circumstances surrounding the triple fatal stabbing continues. The NYPD is working diligently to gather evidence and ensure justice is served for the victims and their grieving loved ones.
