MANHATTAN, N.Y. (PIX11) --- A man allegedly stabbed a straphanger twice during a fight that spilled onto a subway platform in Manhattan on Tuesday, police said Sunday.

The altercation started when the suspect asked the 34-year-old man for a cigarette before trying to steal his money while they were on the southbound F train at around 10 p.m., police said. During the struggle, the man stabbed the victim in the torso, and when the train stopped at the 34th Street-Herald Square station, the two got off and continued fighting.
