Cops released photos of an unknown assailant on Saturday who punched and slashed a straphanger in the face after an argument inside a Brooklyn subway station last month.
The slasher got into a verbal dispute on Dec. 20 with a 50-year-old man on the staircase inside the York St. subway station at Jay and York Sts. in DUMBO around 11 p.m. The victim was first punched in the face and then slashed in the face.
EMS transported the victim to NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital, in Park Slope, in stable condition.
Photos released by cops show the person of interest wearing a black hoodie and gray sweatpants, with a gray backpack.
Police ask anyone with information to call the NYPDÂ Crime Stoppers hotline at 800-577-TIPS.
