NEW YORK (1010 WINS/WCBS 880) -- A subway rider was stabbed in the stomach with an ice pick in an unprovoked attack at a Brooklyn station, police said Friday as they released an image of a suspect.
The 38-year-old victim was standing with another man on the J platform at the Crescent Street station in Cypress Hills around 4:15 a.m. on April 19 when a man with an ice pick showed up.
The crazed man plunged the ice pick into the 38-year-old man's stomach and then followed the victim through the station while wielding the weapon, police said.
The attacker, believed to be in his 30s, eventually fled on a northbound J train.
The victim was transported by private means to Interfaith Medical Center, where he was listed in stable condition.
The 43-year-old man who the victim was with was not injured in the attack.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
