TWO WOMEN SLASHED ON AMSTERDAM AVENUE NEAR 88TH STREET

A woman slashed two other women with an unknown weapon on Saturday at about 3:30 p.m. at 589 Amsterdam Avenue near 88th street, NYPD tells us.

The women were transported to St. Luke’s Hospital, but were not severely injured, an NYPD spokesman said.

The spokesman had no information on what led to the slashing, and did not know if it happened inside the building or outside. He said the assailant was a black female but had no other details about her appearance. No arrests had been made as of 7 p.m.

We will update this if we get more information.

That doesn’t answer Howard’s question, though: Did the perp know the victims?

Also, since she was already arrested, she is already in jail, nu?

Is this something we should pay attention to?
Why is this anonymous story in print.
Rather dig for information that would reveal the neglect of the city and the corruption at the hands of those getting paid by our tax dollars to improve the standard of living and loving for this fast deteriorating third world junk heap, New York.
Thank you!
