The NYPD is investigating a string of shocking assaults on the city's subway system including that of a woman pulling a knife on a man and then biting him in front of her children.
The victim was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital where she was expected to recover.
The NYPD said they were looking for the man and the woman involved in the assault who fled on Fordham Road near Grand Concourse. The man was last seen wearing a green jacket and blue jeans. The woman was last seen wearing a black jacket and black glasses. Nadine Hartstein says a man punched her in the face while she was trying to get off a subway train. She says no one bothered to help her or even call the police.
In Lower Manhattan at about 3:55 p.m., a suspect got into an argument with a 47-year-old man aboard a No. 2 when he spit in the man and his wife's direction, said police. The couple exited the train when the suspect took out a knife and slashed the man in the right arm. On Tuesday at about 2:15 p.m., a woman said she was trying to get off a no.
"I am seeing a lot more officers and passengers are telling me they see officers ride through the train," said Adams during an event Wednesday.
