Would-be chain thief slashes woman with razor on NYC train in latest transit chaos: cops

A would-be chain thief slashed a female straphanger with a razor during the Tuesday evening rush in the Bronx – about a week after a pink coat-wearing attacker choked a teen girl on board a Brooklyn train, cops said.

The victim was riding a northbound 2 train passing through the Pelham Parkway station around 5:30 p.m. when the perp – a stranger – inserted herself in a conversation the victim was having and sparked a fight, authorities and sources said.

The perp then cut the victim with a razor and tried but failed to grab her chain, authorities said.
