Man randomly slashed on the neck with razor blade: NYPD

Police are looking for a man they say slashed another man on the neck randomly on a Manhattan street earlier this week.

On June 13 at about 12:20 a.m. the suspect — described as a Hispanic man between 20 to 25 years old — approached the 21-year-old victim from behind in front of 109 Sherman Ave. in Inwood and assaulted him, according to authorities.

The suspect then ran away northbound on Sherman Avenue, police said.

The victim suffered a cut to his neck and was taken to Harlem Hospital in critical by stable condition.

Authorities said the suspect, who was caught on surveillance video inside a store, was last seen wearing what appeared to be a light blue and white soccer jersey and blue jeans.
