A scissor-wielding man slashed two people in apparently random attacks in the West Village Thursday morning — and then bolted to Midtown, where he was arrested, cops and law enforcement sources said.
The 48-year-old assailant described as an emotionally disturbed person, targeted the victims on Hudson Street, at Christopher and Bleecker Streets around 9:30 a.m., police and sources said.
He first approached a man and slashed him once in the neck with the scissors, authorities said.
The victim refused medical attention and took off, cops said.
The unhinged attacker then slashed another man in the right forearm with the same weapon, cops and sources said.
That victim also refused medical attention.
Eagle-eyed NYPD Transit cops later busted the suspect at West 43rd Street and Eighth Avenue, police said.
Charges against him were pending.
