Grand Central Machete Attack

Panic erupted at one of New York City's busiest transit hubs on Saturday morning when a knife-wielding assailant attacked passengers on a subway platform.

The victims, including two elderly men and a woman, are in stable condition at Bellevue Hospital.

Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch stated that officers fired two shots after the suspect ignored at least 20 commands to disarm.

Authorities have confirmed there is no known link to terrorism, and the incident is being treated as a random act of violence.
