The man accused of the heinous Grand Central Terminal stabbings on Christmas Day has been involved in another violent altercation.
According to law enforcement sources, Steven Hutcherson, the 36-year-old suspect held on attempted murder charges, is said to have slashed a fellow inmate at Rikers Island in New York with a ceramic blade in an unprovoked attack early Thursday morning.
The attack took place around 8 a.m. at the Eric M. Taylor Center (formerly known as the Correctional Institution for Men), where Hutcherson was being held, the New York Post reported.
According to the news outlet, Hutcherson suddenly and without apparent provocation assaulted a 43-year-old man who was resting close by using a 1.5-inch ceramic blade.
