Two men were slashed on a Queens subway platform on Wednesday afternoon, and the suspect remains at large as police continue searching for the attacker, as reported by The New York Post.

The incident occurred around 3:20 p.m. on the southbound platform serving the E and F trains at the Union Turnpike station in Kew Gardens, according to the New York City Police Department.

Officers responding to a 911 call found a 42-year-old man with a laceration to his forehead and a 50-year-old man with a laceration to his face.

Commuters on the platform surrounded the two victims, who were seen holding tissues to their injuries while awaiting medical help. One bystander was observed applying pressure to the forehead wound of one victim as he made a phone call.

The NYPD said both men were transported to nearby hospitals, where they were reported to be in stable condition. Police said the circumstances leading to the slashing were not immediately clear, and investigators have not yet identified a motive.

No arrests have been made, and the attacker remained on the loose as of Wednesday evening. The NYPD said the investigation is ongoing.

Union Turnpike is a busy transit hub connecting two major subway lines in central Queens, drawing heavy foot traffic throughout the day. The midafternoon attack briefly disrupted activity on the platform as police secured the area and interviewed witnesses.
