Video released of suspect wanted for stabbing NYC MTA bus driver with bottle

The NYPD released surveillance footage Sunday of the suspect wanted for stabbing an MTA bus driver in the neck with a bottle in Brooklyn.

The attacker got into an argument with the 60-year-old driver who was driving a B99 bus near Pitkin and Alabama Aves. in East New York around 11:30 a.m. Saturday, cops said.

The attacker hit the driver with a bottle, then stabbed him in the neck with it.

The crazed passenger then jumped off the bus and fled west on Pitkin Ave., officers said.

Medics took the victim to Brookdale University Hospital in stable condition.

Police are asking for the public's help to identify and find the suspect.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will remain confidential.
