Homeless Man Threatens to Kill Michael Strahan, Attempts to Stab Security Guard: Sources
New York Daily News ^ | 7/2

Strahan - who won Super Bowl with Big Blue and now works on GMA part-time while co-hosting “Live! with Kelly and Michael” - never saw the man and was not hurt, officials said.

This nut wanted to sack New York Giants great Michael Strahan — for good.

An unhinged homeless man armed with a knife demanded to be let into ABC’s “Good Morning America” in Times Square Tuesday morning and said later he wanted to kill the Hall of Famer-turned-TV darling, sources told the Daily News.

Security men told Andre Johnson, 25, to take a hike when he first demanded to see Strahan, authorities said.

But Johnson returned with a knife — and tried to stab a security guard with the blade.

He was rebuffed and quickly arrested by cops, officials said.

Johnson was taken to the Midtown South stationhouse where he chillingly told investigators: "I was there to kill Michael Strahan,” law enforcement sources said.

Well, now he’s going to have three hots and a cot. Better than being homeless.

I think winning a Super Bowl after he retired was enough...
