NYC MOM DEMANDS JUSTICE AFTER GIRL, 11, SLASHED BY MANIACAL CAREER CRIMINAL AND
LEFT ‘SHOWERED IN BLOOD’

By Georgett Roberts, Khristina Narizhnaya and Rich Calder

Published May 11, 2024, 5:45 p.m. ET

An 11-year-old girl slashed in the head by an apparently homeless maniac was
left “showered in blood” by the attack and is “lucky to be alive,” her mother
fumed to The Post — while demanding the career criminal who hurt her be put
behind bars.

“I was thinking, ‘Oh my God! She is going to die right now,’ ” recalled
Malgorzata Sladek, referring to her daughter, Maxi Park.

“Her lips were blue. She was losing color.”

“Her clothes, her jacket was covered in blood. It looked like you poured red
water on her, like she was showered in blood.”

The fiend — who has a lengthy rap sheet — knifed the youngster in the back of
the head and cut her ear as she walked down the street holding her mom’s hand,
authorities said.

“I turned around and saw her hair on the sidewalk,” said Sladek, “Her head was
sliced from top to bottom. Blood was pouring out of her head. I was in shock.”

The child required multiple stitches and staples to fix the gash and was “doing
a little better” Saturday while still recovering in the hospital, her mom said.

Cummings, 30, allegedly preyed on the girl outside the 116th Street 6 subway
station Friday and fled underground, moments after he’s accused of sucker
punching an unsuspecting 43-year-old woman around the corner, according to
sources.

Sladek tried to chase down Cummings, even hailing a conductor to stop a train
from departing, but he managed to get away.

Cops ultimately tracked him down a block away.

The suspect was then cornered by a raging mob of Harlem locals seeking street
justice, forcing a group of NYPD officers to protect him, video showed.

In the clip, a man appears to poke him with a cane as the alleged assailant
cowers behind cops.

Cummings, a resident of Jerome Avenue Men’s Shelter in The Bronx, was awaiting
arraignment Saturday in Manhattan Criminal Court on two counts of assault and
acting in a manner injurious to a child.

He’s been arrested more than 20 times, including for assault, criminal mischief
and fare evasion, sources said.

“My daughter could have been dead — not with me anymore,” said Sladek, who also
has a 9-year-old son.

“Why is this person walking the streets of New York? They need to change the
laws.”

Residents who live near the Norwood shelter said its occupants notoriously
harass people, but some pegged Cummings as among the more well-behaved temporary
tenants.

“All of them, one day they are normal, the other they are acting up, but I never
see him acting up,” said one Norwood resident.

“I feel really bad — slashing women, slashing children. That’s big. I thought he
was one of the best ones over there.”

“[The shelter residents] harass women. They attack people, especially if they
beg you for money and you don’t give them,” another resident added.

“I live around here and that’s the worst thing they could have put there. It’s
not safe. They can go off at any time.”
