A lone assailant went on a stabbing spree in New York City, killing two men and critically wounding a woman. The attacks took place at different locations in the city, with the two men being attacked near 444 W. 19th St. and 500 E. 30th St. The victims were taken to Bellevue Hospital, where they were pronounced dead. The woman was stabbed near the United Nations, leaving her in critical condition. A person of interest was captured by police shortly after the attacks, and no other suspects are being sought. The attacks appear to be unprovoked, with the assailant randomly attacking his victims with knives. The investigation is ongoing, and more updates are expected as more information becomes available.
