Brooklyn detectives continue to seek the suspect who stabbed a man to death in front of a home on Friday afternoon.

Police said Christopher Davey, 25, who lived a few blocks away on Linden Boulevard, was fatally attacked on the 800 block of Albany Avenue between Linden Boulevard and Church Avenue in East Flatbush at about 5:30 p.m. on Sept. 4.

Officers from the 67th Precinct found Davey with two stab wounds to his torso not long after receiving a 911 call about an assault in progress. The motive for the attack is not yet known, police sources said.
