The stabbing happened just after midnight inside the victim's home at 1070 Manor Road, near Fanning Street.

The victim was taken to Staten Island University Hospital in Ocean Breeze with a  stab wound to back.

He was pronounced dead at the hospital.

Charges are pending. 

The identity of the victim has not yet been released pending family notification, police said.

Cops roped off the apartment on Manor Friday morning.

Blood stains and a crimson-soaked rag were visible on the residence's front porch.

The death would mark the seventh homicide on Staten Island this year -- and the sixth fatal stabbing.
