The NYPD is actively investigating two separate slashings that occurred in quick succession on the Upper East Side last week. The suspect, described as a man wearing a nylon stocking and Ugg boots, is believed to be responsible for both attacks.

Police in Manhattan are searching for a suspect they believe is responsible for two separate slashings that occurred minutes apart on the Upper East Side last week. The suspect, who was wearing a nylon stocking over his face and Ugg boots, targeted the first victim underground at the subway station at 86th Street and Lexington. According to authorities, the suspect allegedly bumped into a security guard before slashing her face.

He then proceeded outside, where he encountered his second victim, a man who wishes to be identified only as Kenny. Kenny was walking home for dinner on 86th Street near Second Avenue when the suspect, without provocation, bumped into him from behind and slashed the side of his face. Kenny described his attacker as having a grey beard and mumbling loudly. Despite the passage of a week, Kenny remains concerned for the safety of families and neighbors in the area as the suspect remains at large. Authorities are urging anyone with information about either of the two slashings to contact the police immediately
