BRONX - A 62-year-old man is recovering after being stabbed in the chest by an unknown attacker near Yankee Stadium, cops said.


The NYPD just released surveillance video of a suspect wanted in the deli stabbing last month. So far a motive for the near fatal stabbing has not been determined.


At around 2 am on February 25, an unidentified male entered a deli at 950 Anderson Avenue near Yankee Stadium.


Cops said the man walked up to a 62-year-old male inside the store and displayed a knife. Then the suspect plunged the knife into the victim’s chest.
