BROOKLYN, N.Y. (PIX11) -- Police are searching for a suspect who allegedly cut two people Tuesday night, in two separate incidents on the subway in Brooklyn.

Approximately 15 minutes after the first attack, police say the same suspect cut a 67-year-old man on the staircase leading to the G train at the Lafayette Avenue station. The victim was slashed on the knees and wrist, authorities said.
