A 23-year-old man has been charged with second-degree attempted murder after allegedly stabbing a stranger in the back in New York City's Chinatown "for no reason," prosecutors said. Salman Muflihi, of Brooklyn, allegedly pulled an 8-inch knife on the 36-year-old Asian man at about 6:20 p.m. Thursday, according to police sources. The Manhattan District Attorney’s office declined to prosecute the case as a hate crime, despite initial indications by police. Investigators have nothing so far to indicate the defendant ever saw the victim’s face prior to the attack, a law enforcement official told ABC News.
