BED-STUY, NY — A man accused of fatally stabbing a 26-year-old at Bed-Stuy's Tompkins Houses was arrested Wednesday, police said.

Marquis Shiloh, 33, stands accused of repeatedly stabbing Stephon Sinclair, 26, at the development on Park Avenue and leaving him for dead, according to the NYPD.

Sinclair was found on July 12 outside the development — where both Sinclair and Shiloh lived — after he was repeatedly stabbed in the legs, according to police.

He was transported to an area hospital and later pronounced dead.

Sinclair's parents told the Daily News he had stepped out to grab a bag of chips, and that he had always been a hard worker.

"He didn't deserve this," Sinclair's mother told the Daily News.
