Original story from 5/31/22

Last night at 8:10 pm, Oneonta Police say they received a 911 call of a male stabbing victim in the alleyway near 6 Dietz St. and once police arrived at the scene, they discovered that 24-year-old Kaleb J. O’Neill of Oneonta, NY had been stabbed multiple times. He was immediately given aid at the scene and taken by an Oneonta Fire Department ambulance to A.O. Fox Memorial Hospital where he was treated for his wounds but was later pronounced dead since his injuries were too severe.

During an initial investigation, The New York State Police (NYSP) Forensic Identification Unit and the NYSP canine unit were utilized in an attempt to locate any suspects involved in the attack but no further information has been revealed by police.

Investigators do feel that this was not a random attack and therefore no public safety risk in this case but police are asking the public for any information regarding this case which remains in the hands of the Oneonta Police Department and the NYSP Oneonta Bureau of Criminal Investigation and Major Crimes Unit. Anyone with information should call the Oneonta Police Department Detective Division at (607) 432-1111.

Follow-up information will be provided here as it's released from the Oneonta Police Department.

Look: Stunning Mural Transforms Oneonta, NY Eyesore Into Eye Candy

A building that the City of Oneonta plans to demolish, and one of Oneonta, NY's biggest eyesores, has been getting a major makeover thanks to artist James R. Mcilroy, owner of Wolfhound Studio which is a tattoo and art studio at 269 Main Street, Oneonta. Mcilroy has been creating murals on the side of the former Oneonta Sales building on the corner of Market St. and Chestnut St. Extension - a building formerly used as storage by the Twelve Tribes group in Oneonta. Now, instead of focusing on the ugliness of this horrible structure, the eye is drawn instead to the beauty of Mcilroy's artwork. Talk about a transformation!
