Good Thing There Are Still Cops in NYC

A stabbing in broad daylight. Man stabbed on NYC street saved by cops in nearby unmarked car

The 23-year-old victim was walking on Dyckman Street near the corner of Vermilyea Avenue in Inwood at around 2:10 p.m. when a man he knows came up from behind and started wailing on him, according to cops and surveillance video shared with The Post.

An intense fight ensued, footage showed, and the 22-year-old attacker eventually got out a knife he had hidden in his clothes and stabbed the victim as the two spilled off the sidewalk, according to police.

When the attacker drew a knife and started stabbing him, he ran into the street, and right into a car of undercover police.

So will this guy spend any time in jail? Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg has sent people to jail ahead of trial. For defending themselves. Actual criminals don't seem to go to jail.

A dispute? Try to kill someone. Worried about cameras, or daylight, or witnesses? Don't be silly. Nothing will happen to this guy. He hadn't even been officially charged when the Post published this article. I wouldn't be surprised if the DA only charges him with a misdemeanor, though I hope that doesn't happen.

A store manager who works near the incident had this to say.

“This area’s not known to be that violent but crime is definitely on the uptick,” he said. “I don’t know whether it’s because people don’t have money or they were used to getting everything for free during the pandemic.”

Or it could be they have figured out that NYC, New York State, Alvin Bragg and a bunch of other folks have seen to it that there are NO consequences for bad behavior.

Civilization was nice while it lasted.
