PHOTOS: Machete-wielding man attacks a woman on a Brooklyn subway train

Police are hunting for the man pictured above after he attacked a woman as they were riding a southbound 3 train around 9:30 p.m. on TuesdayJan. 26th. The woman told police the man yelled: "I will chop you up on this train," before slicing her hand with a machete.

 

According to the victim identified as Natalie Lewis, 29, she was waiting for the 3 train with her sister at around 9:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Atlantic Avenue-Barclays Center station. After all three boarded, the man yelled, "I will chop you up on this train!" "I’ll find your ass at home!" the man shouted at Lewis, who snapped photos of him as he taunted her, the sources said. "The police aren’t here now. You’re trying to get help from the crowd. They can’t help you! I can just chop you and they can’t do nothing!" the man ranted. He then reached into his black messenger bag and pulled out the 2-foot machete — covered in cloth — and slashed at Lewis. He shouted to her. "Why are you blocking the door?" The man then sliced Lewis just before he fled the train at a nearby station.

Lewis was treated for a 2-inch wound on her hand, but she did not need stitches, police said. Police said the attacker is approximately 5-foot-9 and about 175 pounds.
