A 43-year-old man was stabbed multiple times Wednesday morning in Queens.
The victim was sitting in his parked car at 148th St. and Lowe Court in Jamaica around 11 a.m., when he was approached by an unidentified man who reached through the vehicle’s open window and stabbed him repeatedly throughout his body.
A witness named Freddy who spoke to ABC7 Eyewitness News said he tried to fend off the attacker with a baseball bat.
“This guy, I watched him four times go back and forth, back and forth,” he said. “I knew something was wrong with this guy. Then, out of nowhere, this guy came back with a knife and started stabbing this guy in the neck, in his face and I couldn’t let that happen.”
The victim was transported to Jamaica Hospital by private means and was in stable condition.
It remained unclear what sparked the stabbing or if the victim knew his attacker.
There were no arrests in the assault and the investigation is ongoing.
Anyone with information is urged to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.
