1 day ago84th Precinct welcomes new commanding officer
Joseph Powers returned as commanding officer of the 84th Precinct and committed to improving safety and quality of life through community collaboration.
Cops say a 31-year-old man entered a crowded train and accidentally bumped into the suspect. Becoming enraged, the perpetrator yelled something the victim did not understand before pulling a sharp object from his backpack. Law enforcement sources said the brute then slashed the commuter across his face and left wrist as the train, then departed at the Hoyt-Schermerhorn stop before officers from the 84th Precinct and NYPD Transit District 30 could apprehend him.
