Times Square Stabbing Exposes Dark Underbelly of NYC's Iconic Neighborhood The seemingly impregnable facade of New York City's Times Square was shattered on Monday, leaving one person dead and another wounded in a brutal stabbing.
The attack's randomness and unprovoked nature are particularly disturbing, given the high level of security presence in the area.
While officials have confirmed that the suspect, a 49 year old woman from Queens, had a history of mental health contacts with police dating back to 2018 and 2019, investigators have ruled out terrorism as a motive.
