NEW YORK – Surveillance video shows a dog-walking couple in New York City turn the tables on their would-be attacker Wednesday afternoon, requiring the suspect to seek treatment for stab wounds at a local hospital.
According to law enforcement authorities, the unnamed 37-year-old male perpetrator tried to ambush the couple from behind at about 2:40 p.m. in the Woodside neighborhood of Queens.
Video shows the apparent targets — a woman holding a dog leash and a man who was riding a scooter with his foot in a medical boot — strolling along the sidewalk when the would-be mugger attacked them.
