Man Slashes Woman’s Throat When She Refuses to Have a Conversation With Him

In case you’d forgotten for one fleeting moment that people are terrible, here’s a good reminder: Gothamist reports that a dude in Queens slashed a 26-year-old woman’s neck after she declined his advances.

The suspect, who’s still on the loose, reportedly tried to strike up conversation with the woman around 5:15 a.m. last Wednesday in an apartment-building lobby. When she refused to engage with him, he grabbed her from behind and slashed her neck. The woman had to be hospitalized and is in critical but stable condition.
