The police fatally shot a man on Saturday morning after he attacked three people with a machete at the Grand Central subway station, Mayor Zohran Mamdani said.
The episode, on the platform of the 7 train and then uptown 4, 5 and 6 trains, began just after 9:30 a.m. when the man, who had been seen acting erratically on a subway train, exited at the Grand Central-42 Street Station and slashed three people on the two platforms, according to the police.
Officers responding to the scene repeatedly ordered the man to drop the machete, but he refused to comply, the police said. One of the officers then shot the man, they said.
NYT article of the attack
What the NYT didn't report was the name or any identifying info of the attacker. Other media outlets are reporting his ID as that of Anthony Griffin, a 44-year-old with three prior arrests, Three previous arrests but no published mugshots. Wonder why that might be. Anybody else seen a pic?
