Brooklyn detectives are investigating a deadly stabbing at a public housing complex on Saturday morning that claimed a man’s life.

According to police sources, the grim discovery was made at around 5:44 a.m. on March 8 inside the lobby of a building at 153 Marcus Garvey Blvd., within the Roosevelt Houses in Bedford-Stuyvesant.
