Bloodthirsty NYC Mob Seeks Justice for Slashed Child — NYPD Intervenes
In a shocking event unfolding on the streets of New York City, a man accused of grievously assaulting an 11-year-old girl and a woman was pursued by an enraged crowd before being shielded by the New York Police Department (NYPD). A narrative of swift police action, vigilante justice, and a city’s outrage at a horrific crime takes shape in this gritty urban tableau.
Around 2:15 p.m. on a Friday afternoon, a young girl was brutally attacked near the East 116th Street subway station in East Harlem. As reported by the police, the young girl was holding her mother’s hand on a downtown platform when she was slashed in the back of the head and had her ear cut by what appears to have been a box cutter.
“I saw a guy; he was trying to get off the train car, and he was near the third rail. I asked him what happened, and he said people were chasing him and trying to kill him, but people were yelling he stabbed someone. I grabbed him because I saw the police were running toward us, but he managed to escape,” an anonymous MTA employee shared with WPIX.
The accused, identified as 30-year-old Shaquan Cummings, was reported to have run into the subway station and boarded a train following the attack. The mother of the victim reportedly pursued him but was unsuccessful in capturing him.
Minutes before the assault on the young girl, the suspect was allegedly involved in another violent incident. He is said to have punched an unsuspecting 43-year-old woman around the street corner, further adding to his alleged crimes.
“It was traumatizing. Terrible. It’s terrible to see a little girl with her head cut, sliced in half and it’s just terrible,” the victim’s mother, Gorzata Sladek, told the New York Post. Further details of the horrific incident were shared by a UPS worker who mentioned that the victim was “bleeding in her hand and her shirt … she was crying. Scared.”
Following the attack, the young girl was provided medical assistance near a juice bar before being quickly transported to a local hospital. The severity of her wounds required surgery which included multiple stitches and staples to heal the gash.
In the aftermath of this brutal assault, an irate crowd managed to track down the alleged assailant, cornering him about a block away from where he had reportedly attacked the woman earlier. NYPD officers had to step in to protect Cummings from the crowd, which was demanding its version of justice.
“You f***ing piece of s**t!” echoed through the streets, a sentiment from the crowd that encapsulated the popular outrage. The video evidence shows members of the crowd shouting and poking the alleged suspect with a cane.
Cummings was eventually detained by the police and charged with two counts of assault and acting in a manner injurious to a child. The repeat offender’s arrest record spans more than 20 prior arrests, encompassing crimes ranging from assault, criminal mischief, to fare evasion.
The mother of the young victim, reflecting on the traumatic incident, stated, “You should be able to walk on the street and not worry that somebody will attack you and attack, actually, my daughter not even attacking a dog, but a little kid.” According to her, the child is not faring well emotionally following the incident. She shared, “She doesn’t want to go back to school. She doesn’t want to go outside anymore.”

The attorney for the 17-year-old accused of attempting to murder Ricky Pearsall, a first-round draft pick for the 49ers, is challenging the charges. According to the defense, the incident, which occurred during an attempted robbery earlier this month, does not constitute attempted murder.
“It was a rather extended struggle between Mr. Pearsall and my client,” stated public defender Robert Dunlap in an interview with David Lombardi of TheAthletic.com.
“They were really fighting back and forth on the sidewalk. As you might imagine, Mr. Pearsall gets the best of it. He does kind of — I don’t know if you’ve ever wrestled or not — a nice hip toss and throws my client to the ground and ends up on top of him. . . . I think [the video] supports that this is an attempted robbery and not an attempted murder.”
Dunlap also addressed and refuted a report alleging that his client had brought a gun to school.
“My client did not have a gun at school,” Dunlap said. “It’s a false report.”
Despite these arguments, prosecutors have chosen to charge Dunlap’s client with attempted murder. However, they have not yet determined if the young defendant will be tried as an adult.
The next court hearing for this case is scheduled for September 26.

A son, armed and vigilant, responded to a potential burglary at his mother’s unoccupied home in West Virginia during the early hours of the morning. The encounter ended fatally for the alleged intruder.
Authorities reported that the son, checking on the residence around 3:45 a.m., encountered an individual who turned toward him holding an object.
“Unwise move on the part of the intruder.”
The Berkeley County Sheriff’s Office received a call from a male stating he had just shot an intruder at his mother’s Inwood home on Winchester Avenue.
Upon arrival, deputies discovered a male lying face down with a gunshot wound. Immediate life-saving measures were administered until emergency medical services arrived, but the individual was pronounced dead shortly after.
The deceased was identified as 38-year-old Joshua Boone from Williamsport, Maryland. The sheriff’s office confirmed that Boone’s next of kin had been notified.
The investigation revealed that the son, identified by WDVM-TV as Michael Marshal, had gone to the home after hearing about a possible break-in. Marshal told deputies that Boone turned toward him “with something in his hand,” prompting Marshal to fire his handgun.
Boone was located in the garage of the residence, where the fatal shot occurred.
The Department of Criminal Investigators processed the scene for evidence and is conducting a thorough investigation into the shooting. Once the investigation is complete, the case will be presented to the Berkeley County Prosecutors Office.
Authorities are urging anyone with information regarding this case to contact the Criminal Investigations Division at 304-267-7000.

This POS should be either drawn and quartered or hanged. He hurt a little girl with a razor/box cutter. And before that, he cut a woman? This criminal because of the inept NYC justice system will let him out again so he can harm others until he kills someone. The victims of these crimes should sue the mayor, city council, and the governor as they are the people responsible for the laws that return these criminals back to the public streets to commit more crimes.
Hey, Mr. Mayor, you decided to cut police budgets to house the damn illegals that your buddy biden is shipping into your city and you penalize your citizens for that. Great job Mayor.
Biden should have shut down the border the same way that Trump did. Now you and the citizens of NYC are paying the price because there aren’t enough police nor other city services all because of the damn illegals…

As a Ret. LEO, we as a society are lacking the fundamental resources to deal with the ills of society ie Drug addiction, mental illness and other individual afflictions that plague members of society. If our government can easily donate hundreds of billions to foreign countries for their war efforts, we can easily afford to fund our cities and communities basic public health services to address those in desperate need be it mental health or other human services. We are facing a national division that’s being exploited by corporations and their owners, who want to end social welfare, unions and civil rights because there’s no profit in that endeavor. We must enhance Public welfare that only enriches society as a whole.

People of all states, esp blue, time to take back this country from the liberal elites, they are responsible for shit like this. No bail for violent crimes, rotating door for criminals and soros backed Da’s refusing to prosecute. Time to make the criminals scared again. They should have beat him to death.
