Victim Links Fort Greene Screwdriver Stabber To Second Attack: Report

BROOKLYN, NY — The man who stabbed a Fort Greene worker with a screwdriver last week may have attacked another woman in Manhattan weeks earlier, according to a new report.

The man seen on video attacking a Mr. Mango worker Wednesday is "one hundred percent" the same person who assaulted a woman on the Upper East Side on July 14, the victim told the Daily News Sunday.

Reached for comment Monday, police said the attacks aren't officially linked and investigations into both remain ongoing.

NYPD video footage from the Manhattan attack shows a man walk by the woman on Park Avenue about 6 a.m., before suddenly hitting her with what the woman told the Daily News was a metal object that left her head "gushing" blood.

Similarly, weeks later on July 27, the Mr. Mango worker was restocking fruit on Fulton Street and Lafayette Avenue when an attacker snuck up from behind and stabbed him in the shoulder, police video shows.

Another notable similarity in the footage from both attacks, the Daily News points out, is the suspect's casual footwear, which appears to be Crocs slip-ons.

Police confirmed the assailant was wearing Crocs in the Manhattan attack.
