Multiple people have been injured in a terrifying stabbing at Penn Station in New York City, NY.
Five victims have been hospitalized after an “emotionally disturbed” man went on a rampage, stabbing people seemingly at random.
Law enforcement responded quickly and apprehended the suspect, whose identity has not been released yet.
Take a look at the horrific scene:
NBC New York provided the latest update on the situation:
Five people were injured following a stabbing in New York’s Penn Station, according to a law enforcement official.
One person, believe to have mental health issues, was taken into custody by Amtrak police, according to a senior law enforcement official.
The criminal investigation is in its early stages, but the official said there appears to be no signs of terrorism.
The exact conditions of the five people injured was not immediately known.
This incident comes just one day before President Trump is scheduled to attend the Knicks game at Madison Square Garden.
Extra security precautions will be put into place for President Trump’s attendance at the game.
Daily Mail noted:
The stabbing comes just 24 hours before the New York Knicks face off against the San Antonio Spurs for the third game of the NBA finals at Madison Square Garden, located directly overhead from the transit hub.
President Donald Trump and Mayor Zohran Mamdani are both set to attend the game.
As a precaution, hundreds of US Secret Service officers and agents will be deployed at the Garden on Monday, joined by thousands of NYPD personnel in what law enforcement sources are calling a ‘heightened security posture’ unlike anything seen at an NBA game.
A hard closure is expected around the entirety of Madison Square Garden – one of the busiest corners of Midtown Manhattan – with entire city blocks effectively placed under lockdown for the duration of the event.
No vehicle access and no pedestrian travel will be permitted through the secured perimeter, a sweeping restriction that will affect not just fans but anyone trying to get around that part of Manhattan on a Monday evening.
Only ticketed fans will be allowed anywhere near the building, and even they will face screening more akin to airport security than a typical night at the Garden.
No bags will be permitted inside – not purses, not backpacks, not totes of any size.
Fans have been warned in no uncertain terms to leave everything at home or face being turned away at the checkpoint.
We’ll continue to bring you any further updates on the NYC stabbing as they come in.

Meh.
"NEUTRALIZED the suspect" would be a better ending.
The almost-Summer of discontent is starting to ramp up.
It wasn’t a stabbing. It was a justified act and religious duty of a faithful Muslim against infidels. /s
Donna is the Summer of our Disco Tent................
Was he trying to say goodbye to a Hawaiian food establishment?
Or hello??
I get confused…
New Yorkers doing New Yorker things.
Never Relax
The new normal.
> the official said there appears to be no signs of terrorism <
Here’s an idea, New York. Release the name and a picture of the man.
Then let us decide.
Major basketball game at MSG Monday night. Trump says he’ll be there. NYC.
Wonderful. Missed it by a week and a half. And there were quite a few cops and national guard types standing around all with weapons when I went through there to and from NJ the Wed before last. I wonder if it’s different on Sunday.
Whew! That's a relief.../s
Friggin morons of NYC have it all under control...
“...stabbing people, seemingly at random!....”
Hello Third World !!!
Thanks, DemonRats!
“Emotionally disturbed” means hallucinating 72 virgins and screaming “Allahu akbar!”
Your worst one yet!
