"According to law enforcement sources, the 40-year-old victim was on a southbound R train at around 2 a.m. on Dec. 20 when the attack occurred. Police said the victim and suspect started arguing on the train when the situation escalated to violence. After an exchange of words, the suspect whipped out a knife and stabbed the victim multiple times in the torso and left leg."
"Badly hurt, the victim managed to exit the train at the Steinway Street stop, where officers from the 114th Precinct and Transit District 20 found him bloodied from his wounds. The suspect stayed on the train, police said. EMS responded and brought the victim to NYC Health and Hospitals/Elmhurst in stable condition. Police said the victim did not know his attacker; it is unclear right now what sparked the argument that led to the attack."
"Police released surveillance photos of the suspect on Sunday. He was last seen wearing a beige jacket, blue shirt, black pants and black sneakers. So far there are no arrests, but the investigation remains ongoing. Anyone with information regarding this incident can call Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS (for Spanish, dial 888-57-PISTA).
