Stylish woman who allegedly stabbed photographer with scissors in NYC is nabbed by cops

The stylish woman who allegedly flew into a Britney Spears-level paparazzi rage and stabbed an amateur photographer who accidentally captured a picture of her in the West Village was busted this week, cops said.

Magdalene Lyngdoh, 43 — seen on video wearing a black dress, sunglasses and heels — was arrested on Thursday and charged with second-degree assault in connection to the unhinged, broad-daylight May 5 attack on a 36-year-old man, police said.

It was not immediately clear how cops caught up to Lyngdoh, but she is a neighborhood resident who lives less than a mile from the scene, authorities said.

“I stabbed him with scissors,” she allegedly admitted to cops, according to a criminal complaint.

The trend-setting assailant — who cops say has no prior arrests — was released on her own recognizance during an arraignment in Manhattan Criminal Court on Friday morning, according to prosecutors.

Lyngdoh allegedly flipped out around 4:20 p.m. when she realized the victim caught her in one of the snaps he was taking for social media at Varick and West Houston Street, cops and sources said.

She first slugged him on his shoulder — before flashing a pair of scissors and stabbing him in the back, police said.

The scissor-wielding woman then stormed off, heading south on Varick Street and entering the Houston Street subway station, cops said.

The trend-setting assailant said “I stabbed him with scissors.”

Uh oh. Scissors-stabbings are soon to be the newest de rigueur thing.

No, she’s stylish, and works for a leading NYC school of design.

But she had a case of derangement syndrome! Not good!

One of the Dick Wolf reruns a couple of nights ago had the detective demand: “Drop the scissors” after the perp stabbed someone.

I am not going to post the link itself but there is a scissors-as-the- weapon web discussion site.

“Scissors Slicing Scenes” (even has a Hitchcock movie Dial M For Murder scene).

People are becoming paranoid about being photographed in public...too many idiots with cameras...she definitely should be punished for her crime, however...

People should be more worried about the amount of cameras surveilling us every day from our own government, not douche bags with an iPhone
