A suspect has been taken into custody after a 61-year-old on-duty FDNY Emergency Medical Services lieutenant was stabbed to death in Queens Thursday.

Police say the victim, identified as EMS Lieutenant Alison Russo-Elling, was stabbed to death in an unprovoked attack while on duty and standing outside of FDNY EMS Station 49.

Members of the hostage negotiating team and emergency service unit talked the suspect out of the building.Neighbors describe him just that way, as a loner they would often see walking, expressionless, around the block. The lieutenant also served as a rescue paramedic in her career and had training for performing pre-hospital emergency medical care.

"We lost one of our heroes, she provided a service to the city for over 24 years, her assailant has been apprehended and will be held accountable for his actions," New York City Mayor Eric Adams said.When word got out that an EMS lieutenant had been attacked on the job and did not make it, FDNY EMS members gathered at the hospital to console one another and to mourn.
