A man was brutally stabbed in an apparent Brooklyn road rage incident on Monday morning because his vehicle was double-parked, authorities said.
According to police sources, officers from the 75th Precinct received a 911 call of an assault in progress at around 8:35 a.m. on Linden Boulevard and Pennsylvania Avenue in East New York.

The suspect was last seen fleeing inside a white Mercedes traveling along Linden Boulevard, authorities said.
No arrests have been made, and the investigation remains ongoing.
