Peters said the male victim, 33, told officers he had been stabbed by his ex-girlfriend, Blanca Rincon-Hoyos age 29, of Spring Valley, in his upper torso and right leg during the altercation at the Nanuet residence. Another female victim, also 29, had also sustained stab wounds to both arms during the incident.
