The search is on for a man who police say slashed a woman at the South Ferry station in Lower Manhattan.

NEW YORK - There's been another violent incident in the subway. It happened around 1:15 a.m. Saturday morning on an escalator. According to police, the suspect slashed the the victim, who's in her 20s, in the face. We're told the two know each other, and police are calling it a 'domestic incident.' The woman was taken to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition. The man ran off, and police are searching for him.

Earlier this week, CBS New York's Marcia Kramer took the subway with Police Commissioner Edward Caban. Caban listened to the concerns of riders. Caban and Chief of Transit Michael Kemper pointed to statistics that show an average of six felonies a day on a system that transports millions, but said they are fighting a perception issued that's made worse because of viral social media videos. 'I think social media plays a part in it,' Caban said.
