Summary
Two men, ages 57 and 50, were hospitalized in stable condition after broad-daylight stabbings Thursday afternoon near Central Park West on Manhattan's Upper West Side.
Police said one victim was found just after a 1:30 p.m. 911 call with a stab wound to the back, while the other was stabbed in the chest.
The attacks happened a few blocks apart—near West 84th Street and West 86th Street—and both men were taken to Mount Sinai Morningside and are expected to survive.
A suspect is now in custody as NYPD investigators work to determine a possible motive for the two stabbings.
