Women stabbed, slapped in frightening morning rampage in Brooklyn
A man stabbed a teenaged woman in a terrifying, unprovoked attack in Brooklyn, then slapped another victim nearby, police sources said.
The 18-year-old stabbing victim was walking on Central Ave. near Bleecker St. in Bushwick when the attacker approached her around 10:20 a.m. Wednesday, according to the sources.
The man, dressed in all black, threw the young woman to the ground, punched her and stabbed her around her right hip.
She was taken to Wyckoff Hospital in stable condition.
A short time later, the menace struck again, this time targeting a 35-year-old woman who was walking near the same intersection.
The man randomly slapped the woman before taking off.
Police did not make any immediate arrests.
