HELL’S KITCHEN, Manhattan (PIX11) – Police are searching for a dog walker accused of slashing a man in Hell’s Kitchen on Monday, according to the NYPD.

A 56-year-old man was walking on West 54th Street around 1:22 p.m. when he came across a man in his 50s, who was walking a small black dog, police said. The two got into an argument, and the dog walker allegedly said “I’m going to cut you in half,” according to NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny.

The suspect then slashed the man with an unknown object in his stomach, according to authorities.

The dog walker fled the scene going eastbound on West 54th Street toward 8th Avenue, police said.

The victim was taken to NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue, according to authorities.
