Mother Stabbed on 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge
On Wednesday morning, around 6:40 am, a 34-year-old woman was stabbed in the stomach on 5th Avenue and 83rd Street as she was walking to her car. The news shared that the Bay Ridge <other was with her two children, so she put herself between the man and her daughter, so her daughter would be safe.
Councilman Justin Brannan wrote that the man bumped into the woman, stabbed her in the side through her coat and that she didn’t know she was stabbed until hours later. When she got home, she saw the puncture and went to NYU Lutheran Hospital (some articles say she walked there).
Tonight, Brannan shared more about it when someone asked if he spoke to the NYPD Captain about it:
We are glad that this Bay Ridge Mother wasn’t hurt more seriously!
The woman did not know the man and he did not rob her. See here, here and here.
Councilman Brannan said that the cops believe they know who the guy is.

Yesterday, the 68th Precinct tweeted vague information that wasn’t useful to anyone. The NYPD should have written that a woman was stabbed by someone she didn’t know. Instead they forgot about the woman and just wrote about the “Felonious Assault.” Whatever that means!
Police believe the man below stabbed the woman.
Anyone with information about the attack is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or 1-888-57-PISTA (74782) for Spanish. You can also submit a tip via the Crime Stoppers website, by tweeting @NYPDTips or by texting 274637.
