Bystander’s Throat Slashed in Public Urination Dispute

A shocking incident occurred in Manhattan when a man urinating on a car allegedly slashed the throat of a 66-year-old passerby who told him to stop, according to the New York Daily News. The victim, along with two other witnesses, complained about the man’s conduct, which led to an argument and the suspect slashing the passerby’s throat.

The New York City Police Department reported that the victim suffered a “severe laceration” and was rushed to a hospital in critical condition. The other two witnesses did not sustain injuries during the altercation.

In 2016, (under De Blasio) the New York City Council passed a law easing its criminal laws against public urination due to concerns that too many minorities were getting arrested. I would suppose they never considered in their liberal biased BS opinion that those committing the most crimes WERE minorities and are to this day.

While police still have the ability to arrest people under the reform, the city council encourages officers to hand out civil summons instead. First-time offenders face fines ranging from $25 to $250, and those unable to pay the fine are offered the option of doing community service.

New York used to be a safe city. It was safe under Mayor Rudy Giuliani. He cleaned up the mess. Prior to Rudy, there were Democrat mayors. After Rudy we had Bloomberg and than came the ultra-far lefty Bill De Blasio. It was under his administration that New York went down the tubes. Now they have Eric Adams. What a mess. I wouldn't walk in New York now if my life depended on it.
