The passenger was slashed on both sides of her face

An irate passenger on a train in New York slashed another woman's face with a knife after she wouldn't stop eating, police said. The 33-year-old victim was eating on a moving southbound D train in Brooklyn around 1030pm Wednesday when another woman approached her and asked her to stop, according to New York police. When she didn't, police said the suspect pulled out a knife and slashed her on both sides of her face. https://twitter.com/NYPDTips/status/1506480680854773760?s=20&t=oarIWU6EfpBfg-0i8eKIww The attacker then fled from the train at the Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue station.
