2 Slashed in Separate Attacks in NYC; 2 Men Stabbed in 3rd Attack

A woman and a man were slashed in separate attacks in the Bronx, and two other men were stabbed in the borough, police said Sunday.

Two men jumped out of a vehicle and attacked a woman in Williamsbridge on Saturday afternoon, according to police.

One of the two suspects, armed with a knife, stabbed the 26-year-old woman in the abdomen and slashed her right ear. The men sped off, and the woman was taken to a hospital, the NYPD said.

In Crotona early Sunday, a stranger approached a man from behind and slashed him on the left side of his face before running away, police said.

The man told police he didn't know his attacker and didn't know why he was targeted. The man was taken to the hospital.

Two men were also stabbed in Claremont early Sunday morning after leaving a party on 173rd Street, according to police. 

The twenty-something-year-old men were stabbed around 3 a.m. by three suspects, who took off on foot after the stabbing. 

One man was stabbed in his left torso and the other man was stabbed in the stomach. They were both taken to North Central Bronx Hospital. Their conditions were unknown. 

Police are investigating all three incidents. 

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 800-577-TIPS.
