Police in New York City report that a man stabbed in the back by a knife by an unknown suspect on a subway platform was identified as a New York City fire inspector.
Taofeek Ajisegiri, 54, said in an interview with the New York Post that people in America don’t care about each other anymore.
Ajisegiri, who was stabbed on Friday, said other passengers just sat and watched. Some even walked by as he was being stabbed. He was taken to the hospital where he was treated and received 12 stitches on his wound.
The attack appears to be unprovoked. Despite the city’s media and public image push of providing extra manpower on subway trains this week, he said no police were around during his attack.
