In a shocking incident on a Queens street, two men attacked three individuals, including a 19-year-old woman, following an early-morning altercation. Authorities are now seeking public assistance to identify the audacious attackers.
The confrontation took place around 4 a.m. on October 2, when the two suspects engaged in a verbal dispute with the victims—a teenage girl, a 23-year-old man, and a 34-year-old man—on Roosevelt Avenue near 103rd Street in Corona, as reported by the police.
Caught on surveillance footage, the attackers used an unknown sharp object to slash the young woman on her back, the older man on his back and hands, and the younger man on the left side of his face. The suspects then fled north on 104th Street, according to the police.
Emergency Medical Services rushed the injured to Elmhurst Hospital Center, where they were treated and are currently in stable condition.
Police describe the suspects as having light skin tones and heavy builds. One suspect was last spotted wearing a red Nike hoodie, black jeans, and black sneakers. The other was seen in a white baseball cap, a black hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers.
