NEW YORK — A man accused of using a knife to slash a man and a woman in Manhattan’s Grand Central subway station faced assault and menacing charges Wednesday.

The man was arrested on assault, reckless endangerment, menacing, harassment, disorderly conduct and a weapons charge after the attack at 10:15 p.m. Tuesday which left a 42-year-old man with an injured wrist and a 26-year-old woman with a neck injury, police said.

Both victims were in stable condition.

The attacks came amid heightened concerns about crime in the subways, particularly after the arrest Sunday of a man charged with setting a woman on fire on a subway car.

The woman died from her injuries.

Mayor Eric Adams told reporters in Harlem that the man had suffered from a history of mental illness.

The New York Post reported that the woman who was slashed said she had just gotten off the No. 4 train and was heading to work when she was attacked.
