Mr. Knife Guy
A knife-wielding maniac slashed a man aboard an R train at 53rd Street on May 25.
The victim told police the suspect pulled a knife on him after he boarded the Manhattan-bound train at the New Utrecht station near Fourth Avenue at 8 p.m., and immediately lunged at him, carving up his arm and torso, before nabbing his wallet, along with the $600 it contained, and fleeing after the doors opened at 53rd Street.
The hapless straphanger disembarked further up the line at 45th Street, and hiked over to Lutheran Medical Center for treatment, cops said.
