NYC Subway Stabbing: Man with Machete Injures Three, Shot by Police
A man who attacked three people with a machete at the 42nd Street-Grand Central subway station was shot and killed by police after refusing commands to drop his weapon and advancing on officers. The suspect, identified as 44-year-old Anthony Griffin, claimed to be “Lucifer” and had prior arrests. The three victims, all adults, sustained non-life-threatening injuries, with one suffering an open skull fracture. Authorities believe the attacks were random acts, and an investigation is ongoing.
