It was an assault with a Razor. No, not a blade — a kick scooter.
A 19-year-old was smashed with the two-wheeled transporter and, more seriously, stabbed when three males ganged up to attack him in the East Village, police said.
The incident occurred on Sun., Oct. 3, around 5:45 p.m., in front of 254 E. Third St., just west of Avenue C. According to police, the trio punched the victim in the face, struck him with a metal scooter and stabbed him several times in the back and shoulder before fleeing on foot.
The victim was treated at and released from Bellevue Hospital.
