Brooklyn, NY - A 31-year-old man was slashed on a southbound "A" train Friday afternoon after a dispute with another rider turned violent, police said. The attack happened around 4:23 p.m. as the train approached the Hoyt/Schermerhorn Station. According to investigators, the unidentified assailant pulled a knife and slashed the victim on the arm and head before fleeing the station. EMS transported the victim to One Brooklyn Health-Brookdale University Hospital Medical Center, where he was listed in stable condition.
The man in question had already been detained once before and was released soon after the incident, with no initial indication of him being directly involved in injuring a young American. But investigators said new information might implicate him more directly. Police said in a press release that after further investigation there was now reasonable grounds to suspect that he was "involved in the knife attack against the 20-year-old American and also himself injured the victim with a dangerous object."
