Two New Yorkers were each slashed by strangers in terrifying, public attacks hours apart on Sunday in The Bronx and Manhattan, cops and sources said.<\/p>\n
In the latest bloody incident, a 33-year-old man was riding a southbound No. 2 train at around 9:30 p.m. in the Van Nest neighborhood when he and a woman he\u2019d never seen before got into an argument, authorities and sources said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The squabble took a violent turn as the train was passing through the Bronx Park East station \u2014 when the woman suddenly pulled out a small silver knife and\u00a0cut the man on the right side of his neck, police said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The victim, who got off the train after the attack, was taken to Jacobi Medical Center, where he was listed in stable condition.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The knife-wielding woman, believed to be in her 40s, stayed on board and had not been caught by Monday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In an unrelated, broad-daylight spurt of violence hours earlier, a stranger slashed a 78-year-old man in the cheek during an argument in Hells Kitchen, cops said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The dreadlocked suspect intentionally bumped into the senior at West 48th Street and Ninth Avenue around 2:50 p.m., sparking a brief squabble, police sources said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A manager at the all-day brunch joint Mom\u2019s Kitchen and Bar, who identified himself as Conor, said the mayhem unfolded outside his restaurant.<\/p>\n

The restaurant worker described surveillance footage of the attack, showing the perpetrator drawing a knife from his bag and cutting the septuagenarian across the face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The victim then went inside a nearby Mexican restaurant, Planet Taco, while someone called the cops, Conor said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was ultimately taken to Bellevue Hospital, where he was listed in stable condition.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the assailant took off, heading west on 48th Street toward 10th Avenue, the sources said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The alleged slasher, who was still on the loose Monday, was last seen wearing a black T-shirt, blue jeans and black sneakers, carrying a red Target bag.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was crazy for sure. I\u2019m from New York and I\u2019ve never seen that before,\u201d Conor said. \u201cOn a Sunday at 3 p.m., that\u2019s the craziest bit.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Two New Yorkers were each slashed by strangers in terrifying, public attacks hours apart on Sunday in The…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":138560,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5122],"tags":[5229,10762,4219,47803,5249,5248,405,403,5226,5225,5228,5227,82991,82992,5305,67,586,132,5230,68,1154,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-138559","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-assault","10":"tag-crime","11":"tag-hells-kitchen","12":"tag-manhattan","13":"tag-metro","14":"tag-new-york","15":"tag-new-york-city","16":"tag-newyork","17":"tag-newyorkcity","18":"tag-ny","19":"tag-nyc","20":"tag-slashings","21":"tag-subway-slashings","22":"tag-the-bronx","23":"tag-united-states","24":"tag-united-states-of-america","25":"tag-unitedstates","26":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","27":"tag-us","28":"tag-us-news","29":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115013521732805728","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138559","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=138559"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138559\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/138560"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=138559"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=138559"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=138559"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
