Dad of four stabbed to death in Brooklyn bodega by childhood classmate in clash over snapping photos

A father of four was stabbed to death by a deranged childhood classmate over a long-festering grudge, with the killer snapping photos of his victim before the slaying inside a Brooklyn bodega, police and family members said Wednesday.

Severiano “John” Reyes, 36 was hanging out with relatives on Roebling St. near South 9th St. in Williamsburg about 8:30 p.m. Tuesday when the old schoolmate began antagonizing him by taking his picture, according to relatives.

The dispute exploded in a lethal instant after Reyes asked the man to stop, with the attacker plunging his blade into the fleeing victim’s neck before bolting from the scene.
