“Assaults on New Yorkers over 65 have spiked by 14% compared to last year — and have skyrocketed 143% over the same span in 2018,” the New York Post wrote.
Police figures showed a 50 percent increase in attackers who target older citizens within 30 days of their previous attack.
The attack was the second in recent days that highlighted the random violence now endemic to New York City.
On Monday, a Times Square stabbing incident left one person dead and one wounded. The suspect, later identified as Pamela Cisneros, was shot when she charged police while waving knives at them, according to WNBC-TV.
In that attack, Erin Piacenti, 32, was killed on her first day returning to her Bank of America job after maternity leave, according to WABC-TV.
Amy, 37, a pilates instructor, told the New York Post that “The city is getting so dangerous.”
“My husband walks through Time Square twice a day. It could have easily been him,” she said.
“It’s terrifying. You get used to crazy people yelling on the street. You tense up and walk a little faster but you kind of get used to it.”
Beth, 71, called the recent attacks in the city “terrible.”
“It’s a nightmare,” she said. “It seems like everyday someone’s getting shot or stabbed in Times Square now.”
