Jason Sargeant, 28, was arrested for slashing two random people at the 42 Street-Grand Central subway station on Christmas Eve. A 26-year-old woman was slashed in the neck and a 42-year-old man was slashed in the left wrist.
A suspect was arrested after a random stabbing spree inside the Grand Central subway station in New York City on Christmas Eve left two victims wounded, police said. A spokesperson for the New York City Police Department confirmed to Fox News Digital that 28-year-old Jason Sargeant, of Brooklyn, was arrested for the assault on two random people. On Tuesday, just before 10:15 p.m., police responded to a 911 call about an assault at the 42 Street-Grand Central subway station.
Hours after the attack, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul touted subway safety in New York City in a post on X, and is facing criticism over her 'tone-deaf' post. 40 YEARS BEFORE DANIEL PENNY CASE, BERNHARD GOETZ'S SUBWAY VIGILANTE SHOOTING SHOCKED US AHEAD OF CHRISTMAS Hochul claimed that crime has decreased on NYC subways since she deployed the National Guard to mitigate the issue earlier this year, approximately eight hours after the woman's murder.
