An unhinged attacker slashed a man and a woman in back-to-back knife attacks inside Grand Central Station, police said Wednesday. The first victim, a 42-year-old man, got into a quarrel with the attacker on the uptown No.

New York City police arrested and charged a man suspected to have set a woman on fire in the subway early Sunday and then watched from a bench as she became engulfed in flames and died.

Sebastian Zapeta, 33, is charged with two counts of murder and one count of arson. The top charge carries a maximum sentence of life in prison without parole.View on euronews
