A 16-year-old boy stabbed his family’s tenant to death during a clash over loud music in their Queens home over the weekend, cops and sources said.
The teen knifed Byron Lema-Naula, 24, in the neck just after 6 a.m. Sunday as the two argued over the blaring music, as well as banging, inside the multi-family house on 35th Avenue near 102nd Street in North Corona, cops said.
It’s unclear who may have started the ruckus, the sources said.
Lema-Naula — who sources say was renting a room from the teen’s family — was rushed to the Elmhurst Hospital Center, where he succumbed to his injuries, cops said.
The alleged teen attacker was busted several hours later and faces raps for second-degree murder and fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon, police said.
The boy, whose name was not officially released because he is a minor, has no prior arrests, sources said.
Judge Bruna DiBiase ordered the teen held without bail during his Monday evening arraignment. He will appear in court again on Thursday.
