Frederick Schock III, 48, pulled a pocket knife from his pants and stabbed his stepson once in the lower chest in their Prospect Avenue apartment shortly after 8:30 a.m., Detective Capt. Darrin DeWitt said.
Police found the victim at Hackensack University Medical Center after he’d gone there with a wound that DeWitt said wasn’t considered life-threatening.
Schock, meanwhile, was taken into custody and sent to the Bergen County Jail to await a first appearance in Central Judicial Processing Court in Hackensack.
He’s charged with aggravated assault and weapons offenses.
