Boy, 16, subway musician, good Samaritan and MTA worker roughed up as transit violence surges: cops

A 16-year-old boy was stabbed and three other people were attacked in the latest surge of subway violence – just days after a shootout left one person dead and several others wounded, cops said.

The stabbing came hours after a homeless man slugged an MTA worker and good Samaritan – and a subway musician was clobbered with a bottle in a random attack, according to police.

The teen was knifed in the upper left thigh around 3:20 p.m. Wednesday as he walked on a Q train ramp at the Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue station, cops said.

The boy, who was leaving the station when he was attacked, was taken to NYU Langone Hospital—Brooklyn, where he was listed in stable condition.

A suspect was taken into custody, but not immediately charged.

The motive for the attack remains under investigation.

Earlier in the day, the homeless man clocked the female MTA worker in the face after she woke him up on a Lower Manhattan train platform Wednesday morning – and then he walloped a bystander who tried to keep the peace, cops said.
