It's nothing new: Rivera has been arrested at least 8 times in New York, plus many additional times in Ohio and Florida. He was in Rikers… pic.twitter.com/7DzpPXQnoJ

相關當局指出,這名年紀51歲的嫌犯,衣服和身上攜帶的2把菜刀都有血跡,他已經被警方拘捕。美聯社報導,嫌犯和受害者的姓名都沒被公布。
民主黨籍的紐約市市長亞當斯(Eric Adams)說道,3位紐約民眾無緣無故遭攻擊。
亞當斯還提到,嫌犯顯然無家可歸,幾個月前曾在一起刑事案件中遭判刑,但沒有透露更多細節。
受害民眾遭襲擊的時間前後相隔2個半小時,調查人員正努力查清嫌犯作案動機。
