Man randomly punches, slashes woman, 64, in vicious NYC attack
A man randomly punched and slashed a 64-year-old woman in a vicious attack on a Queens street late Thursday, cops said.
Christopher Jordan, 41, slugged his victim and cut her with a knife in an assault that unfolded around 9:15 p.m. on Guy R. Brewer Boulevard near Phroane Avenue in the Addisleigh Park neighborhood, cops said.
The woman was left with multiple cuts all over her body and hospitalized in stable condition, police said.
Jordan – who lives down the block from the scene – was arrested soon after the attack and charged with assault, fourth-degree criminal possession of a weapon, menacing, disorderly conduct and harassment, authorities said.
Police say the victim and suspect did not know each other but had no further information by Friday afternoon on the motive for the violence.
