In a concerning turn of events, Peter Fragoso, a 29-year-old resident of New Brunswick, has been charged with attempted murder after a serious stabbing incident on December 3 at a residence on Durham Avenue.

Responding officers discovered the victim inside the home with significant stab wounds, and he was promptly rushed to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick for critical medical attention.
