Syosset Teen Charged With Murder in Fatal Stabbing at West Babylon House Party

The 17-year-old now heads to arraignment, with detectives urging partygoers to share what they saw.

Overview

  • Suffolk County police arrested a 17-year-old boy from Syosset and charged him with second-degree murder in the death of 15-year-old Liam Delemo.
  • The suspect is scheduled to be arraigned Monday at First District Court in Central Islip, and his name is being withheld because he is a minor.
