Shocking video shows serial offender stab random tourist near Times Square in unprovoked attack

Shocking video captured the moment a serial offender pulled out a massive knife and stabbed a passing tourist near Times Square in a horrifying unprovoked attack.

Video of Saturday evening’s attack shows the man using a walker to exit Port Gourmet Deli at West 43rd and Eighth Avenue and loitering outside the storefront before lunging at an unsuspecting woman on the sidewalk.

The attacker can be seen in the clip wearing a bright yellow sweatshirt under a dark jacket and an orange hat leaving a store and sitting outside on his walker.

Two women can be seen walking toward him when he suddenly jumps up from his seat and reveals a large knife

Footage shows the suspect shuffling forward and stabbing one of the women across the chest.

Three women can then be seen backing away from the man, who returns to his seat outside the storefront with the knife on display on his lap.

About two minutes later, footage shows two police officers approaching the man, getting him to drop the knife, and placing him in handcuffs.

The suspected attacker, Cyril Destin, 62, has been arrested 14 times in the past 20 years, largely for criminal mischief and trespassing — including four arrests since 2019, police sources told The Post.

*** Jamal Mubare, 56, who has owned Port of Gourmet Deli since 1994, told The Post the suspect lives across the street at a homeless shelter and would regularly come into his store to buy Newport 100 cigarettes.

“I know this guy one year. He don’t look like he’s dangerous. I think he just didn’t take his medication or something,” Mubare told The Post. “Everyone over there in the homeless shelter across the street is crazy. They all take medications.”

It isn’t “random” when it is the same perpetrators and the same victims every time.

Another instance where Gen. James Mattis famous quote shows its wisdom.

‘Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.’

This man should have never made it back to his chair.

If the victim dies, the savage should be summarily hanged, and in any truly civilized country he would be. If the victim survives, the savage should be incarcerated for a minimum of 10 years with no possibility of early release.

The stabber needs to be locked away in a secure cell for the rest of his life, or dispatched with extreme prejudice. One or the other.

I usually am thankful for the NY Post in the cesspool of worthless NY City media but I do not think they should ever say “unprovoked” because it implies some victims deserve to be bloodied and battered because they knew the offender or had fought back.

They try to push that in the tragic beating of Kaylee Gain.
Nothing justifies an argument ending with bashing a young woman’s skull on pavement and causing her to be in intensive care and apparently brain damaged. Part of her skull has been removed to allow lowering the pressure on her brain.

Good one. Exit strategy: Put that on a tee shirt and get rich.

Funny though, when I went to Google the Burger King dude for the above image, I stumbled across a story where four high school students were being investigated for "racism" after wearing Burger King crowns to school.

So, thanks to that king, Burger King crowns are now a racist "dog whistle."

New York officials who were responsible for releasing this criminal should be indicted as codefendants for the stabbing as well as for continuing to steal oxygen.

“If the victim dies”

There was no stabbing. The article says slashing but she didn’t act hurt.

Wrong.
