Subway Massacre :2 Dead, 4 Stabbed on A Train Within 24 Hours

 

(TJVNEWS.COM) Two people were found stabbed to death on separate A trains overnight and two more were later discovered injured from vicious stab wounds, also along the A train line police said Saturday morning.

Police found a 44-year-old woman with stab wounds on a train at the West 207th Street and Broadway station in Washington Heights around 1:30 a.m. She was pronounced dead at the scene CBS reported. NY Times reported the gruesome murder in more detail, in a scene out of a 1980’s slasher movie,  the 44-year-old woman,  apparently homeless was found,  stabbed throughout her body underneath a seat on a train at a station in Upper Manhattan

About two hours earlier, officers found a man with stab wounds who was sitting on a train stopped at the Mott Avenue and Beach 22nd Street station in Far Rockaway. He was also pronounced dead at the scene. The NY Times expanded on the horrifying slashing reporting: the man, apparently homeless,  was found dead from stab wounds to the neck and torso, slumped on a seat.

The NY Times also reported a third victim and fourth victim of the slasher

The Times reported:

There was nearly a third killing at a third subway station when a homeless man sleeping on an exit stairwell was awakened by a sharp pain in his back. He, too, had been stabbed. He ran to a bank, collapsed, and was in “very serious condition” at a hospital, the police said.

All three attacks, the police say, were likely committed by the same person. And they may be linked to an earlier nonfatal attack on Friday morning, in which an assailant yelled “I’m going to kill you,” then stabbed a 67-year-old homeless man in the knee and buttocks as he pushed his walker on a train platform.
