There was a stabbing on W. 83rd Street and West End Avenue at 3:53 p.m., police told West Side Rag. A 38-year-old man was stabbed in his right arm with an unknown object by a man in his 40s, who fled southbound on West End Avenue in a black Mercedes-Benz.* The victim was taken to Mount Sinai Morningside hospital and is “not likely,” i.e. to die. The investigation is ongoing.
*This detail was initially, inadvertently omitted.

Every building on WEA seems to have a security camera, if he escaped in a car, there is certain to be pictures and hopefully a clear shot of the plates.
this is another one i don’t understand. Why can’t NYC ask every building to install 3-5 cameras? How much could that possibly cost? $10k? That’s nothing compared to the cost of solving crimes.
No all of them do. But it is look like they should do.
…but he IS “likely” to have a stab wound in his arm forever.
And when they catch him we must make sure he gets no bail probably like thie last 10 times he was arrested
Another random stabbing and Adams keeps assuring us crime is down ! It seems this is happening every few days. I am guessing the perpetrator is a person who has done this before and should be behind bars !
In today’s Times Adams was quoted as having said that shootings and murders are down. Certain other categories of crime were up in 2022.
The average mugger doesn’t escape in a Mercedes. This sounds more like a conflict between the two individuals involved than a random crime.
where did you read that this was random?
No description??
Need more cameras.
In broad daylight, on a not-so-quiet street. How could there be no witnesses?
I think there were witnesses. From the Citizen App live yesterday: “Confirmed assault with knife, aided not likely. Suspect is a m/w wearing a gray puffer jacket, fled s/b on WEA in a black Mercedes-Benz (SUV).”
Doorman in almost every building. I wonder if it was under scaffolding at that school?
And Westend Intergenerational Residence.
sounds like it was someone he knew, as is the case with most violent crimes.
