Officers were running through the 4/5/6 station at 86th Street and Lexington Ave searching for the person who slashed two women and ran.
Just before 4:30 p.m. Sunday, police say the slasher attacked a 19-year-old woman and a 48-year-old woman on the platform - cutting them both on their legs.
For Nicholas Altobelli, who was working only a block away from the scene on the Upper East Side, it brought back what he witnessed back in February 2020 on a 6 train, when he heard screams and helped a woman who was randomly slashed. He took off his shirt to use as a tourniquet when a young victim suffered a gash to his head.
It has been a busy weekend for the NYPD investigating violent crime - and not just on the Lexington Avenue line.Detectives are still looking for witnesses and video to explain what happened to a man who died after being found with stab wounds on a 4 train very early Saturday morning in Union Square.
