NEW YORK (1010 WINS) – A 48-year-old man was hospitalized in critical condition after two men exited a van and slashed him repeatedly on a street in the Bronx last week, police said Monday.
The victim was on Third Avenue, near E. 180th Street, in the Belmont section around 3:10 p.m. Friday when he was attacked, according to police.
Two men got out of a work van and brandished knives before slashing the victim repeatedly on his neck and arm, police said.
The men fled in the work van, while the victim was rushed by EMS to St. Barnabas Hospital in critical condition. Police said he was eventually stabilized.
The NYPD released surveillance video Monday showing the suspects and the van they're looking for.
Police didn't say if they believe the victim knew or had previous contact with his attackers.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
