Acosta allegedly got into a dispute after his girlfriend confronted the victim for parking in their spot, and that's when he repeatedly stabbed the 22-year-old.

The victim underwent surgery at Westchester Medical Center and is expected to survive but may lose his leg because of damage to the blood vessels, officials said.
