NYC SUBWAY SLASHER ATTACKS AT LEAST 3 PASSENGERS — ALL WOMEN — IN SPAN OF AN
HOUR

HOURS AGO

Gaby Acevedo reporting on 1 killing, 4 hurt in weekend subway attacks

One person was killed and at least four others injured in a spate of subway
slashings in New York City over the weekend, police said, in a stretch of
violence that included three women attacked in the span of an hour.

New video released Monday morning shows the man police are looking for in
connection to the attacks on the women on Sunday, seen jumping over a turnstile
at the East 86th Street subway station near Lexington Avenue. Investigators said
that the suspect approached two women, a 48-year-old and a 19-year-old, from
behind and slashed them both in the right leg with a sharp object around 4 p.m.

"I just felt like a slice. I grabbed my thigh and I looked back and he was
there. And I had the blood, and the blood was dripping everywhere," said the
teen victim, who did not wish to be identified. She said she was on the downtown
train to pick up a cake for her dad on Father's Day.

"I noticed [the suspect] come in, he was kind of staring at me, I wasn't trying
to make eye contact with him. It was me, him and a lady that got off with a
service dog," said the teen. "I got off first and then he was behind me. I was
walking up the stairs and he slashed me...I looked back and he was just there,
standing, and I was crying and he just walked across the platform."

She said the man never said a word, and moments later, the 48-year-old woman at
the same station.

About 20 minutes after that initial attack, officers said a 28-year-old woman
was stabbed by the same suspect at the Chambers Street station in lower
Manhattan. The man ran from the scene and exited the train at the Brooklyn
Bridge-City Hall station. He has not yet been identified.

The victim was rushed to the hospital with a severe cut to her left leg,
according to police. Each of the three victims is expected to recover.

Those incidents came after Father's Day weekend started with a deadly attack on
a 4 train at Union Square. The victim, identified by police as 32-year-old Tavon
Silver, was found unconscious inside a train car Saturday morning with a stab
wound to his chest. It was not immediately clear what led to the fatal
confrontation.

No arrests have been made in any of the cases. An investigation is ongoing, as
police are concerned it may only be a matter of time before he strikes again.
There was an increased police presence along the 4/5/6 line on Monday, with
officers patrolling platforms, boarding trains and looking for the suspect.

Anyone with information regarding the case or the suspect, who is considered to
be armed and dangerous, is urged to contact police.
