New York police arrested Raul Morales, 51, after two men were stabbed Thursday afternoon in separate, unprovoked attacks on Manhattan’s Upper West Side near Central Park. Police said a 57-year-old Asian man was stabbed in the back near West 84th Street and Central Park West, and a 50-year-old Jewish man was stabbed in the torso several blocks away. Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Morales allegedly shouted “Allahu Akbar,” and the NYPD is evaluating the attacks as a possible hate crime. Both victims were hospitalized in stable condition and expected to survive.
