From the New York Post: A maniac barged into a Lower Manhattan courthouse and slashed two officers in the neck and face in a shocking attack Monday morning, law enforcement sources said.
Jonathan Wohl, 37, of Queens, ran into the lobby of Manhattan Criminal Court at 100 Centre Street around 9:30 a.m. and suddenly ambushed the officers, according to the sources.
He cut one of the officers twice on his face and sliced the other on the neck – before shoving a third into a barrier in the main lobby, the sources said.
Wohl was then taken into custody on the fourth floor of the courthouse.
The Post revealed that Wohl has a lengthy criminal record, with a whopping 18 previous arrests, mostly for drug-related offenses. Three of those cases are still open.
