Police in the 108th Precinct are looking for a female suspect who allegedly slashed a man and a woman outside their home in Woodside last month.
The suspect was sitting at the entrance of the victims’ residence, located in the vicinity of 37th Road and 69th Street, at around 7:40 p.m. on Aug. 31, when they asked her to move, according to police. The request to move led to a verbal dispute between the assailant and the victims – both 53 years old — which soon turned violent, the NYPD said.
The suspect brandished an unknown object and used it to allegedly cut the male victim in the arm and the female victim in the chest, cops said.
The assailant then fled the scene on foot southbound on 70th Street. EMS arrived at the scene and treated the two victims for their injuries, the NYPD said.
