A man was stabbed several times on the street outside Nevins Street subway station near Barclays Center in Brooklyn, police say. He’s now in critical condition at the hospital. Ray Villeda reports.
Subway riders spilling out of a Brooklyn subway station at the start of the evening rush Friday met chaos and confusion as a man was stabbed on the street.
Passengers witnessed the violence at the intersection of Fulton and Flatbush, right outside Nevins Street subway station at around 4:30 p.m. Police said a 29-year-old man was stabbed several times in the neck, head and body by two men.
"The guy was lying on the floor, I thought it was a hit-and-run, but then someone told us he got stabbed," said Victoria Acosta.
It's not clear what led to the stabbing. A nearby food vendor who didn't want to be identified told News 4 she saw the two men stabbing the victim.
The victim is in critical condition at Methodist Hospital. Police are continuing to investigate.
