MTA conductor slashed in face while announcing Bronx train delays

THE BRONX, N.Y. (PIX11) — An MTA conductor was slashed in the face while announcing train delays in a Bronx subway station on Tuesday afternoon, officials said. The 36-year-old woman was attacked on the platform of the No. 6 train in the Whitlock Avenue subway station at around 12:23 p.m., according to the NYPD. More Local News The conductor was announcing train delays when the suspect came up to her and allegedly said, 'no one will tell him what to do,' according to the New York Transit Union. The suspect then allegedly cut the worker on the left side of her face, near her eye, officials said. She was taken hospital for treatment and needed stitches to close the gash, officials said. 'The union is calling on the city to notify police patrols to be especially vigilant and cover the conductor's cab area as they work to reduce crime. This easily could have been a deadly assault — we must do everything we can to prevent the next one,' Union President John V. Chiarello said in a statement. The suspect ran off after the incident and was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and green pants, police said. There have been no arrests.
