NextImg:Migrant stabbing suspect remanded without bail at initial court appearance

The suspected stabber accused of killing a fellow migrant over a woman inside a cafeteria at the Randall’s Island tent city appeared for the first time in a Manhattan court Friday.

Moises Coronado, 27, was seen wearing a beige prison jumpsuit with a medical mask covering his face as he saw a judge for the fatal Jan. 6 stabbing of Dafren Canizalez, 25.

Coronado, who used a Spanish interpreter throughout the brief proceeding, allegedly stabbed Canizalez to death with a kitchen knife inside a cafeteria tent at the migrant camp, prosecutors have said.

Two other suspects — Ferneys Horta, 33, and Anthony Navas, 27 — allegedly chased down Canizalez inside the cafeteria until he was trapped against the door — and he was stabbed in the upper chest area, according to a criminal complaint.

Prosecutors said that the trio then pursued Canizalez until he collapsed and bled out — which is when security intervened and found a knife inside Coronado’s pocket.

Canizalez was rushed to Harlem Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Dafren Canizalez was pronounced dead at Harlem Hospital a short time after the stabbing.

The beef between Coronado and Canizalez started after Coronado had been talking to the fellow asylum-seeker’s girlfriend, according to law enforcement sources.

He pleaded not guilty at his arraignment to murder and gang assault charges and was remanded.

Horta and Navas are scheduled to appear later Friday in court.
