A migrant was stabbed outside a Manhattan hotel-turned-shelter on Tuesday evening following a dispute with a group of men, according to law enforcement sources.
The incident took place around 6 p.m. near 713 8th Avenue, just steps from the Row NYC hotel, which had been converted into a migrant shelter amid the ongoing migrant crisis.
The victim, a 42-year-old man residing at the shelter, was involved in a quarrel with a group of men when one of them pulled out a sharp object and stabbed him in the left hip.
Police and law enforcement sources confirmed that the suspect, dressed in all-black, fled the scene immediately after the attack.
The victim was quickly transported to Bellevue Hospital, where he was treated and is currently in stable condition.
At this time, authorities have not confirmed whether the suspect is also a migrant. The investigation is ongoing, and police are working to locate the attacker, who remains at large.
