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.


The attacker ran out of the store and fled in an unknown direction.


EMS rushed the victim to Jacobi Medical Center where he was listed in stable condition.


The suspect is described as a male with a light complex and box braids. He was last seen wearing a black jacket and a white hooded sweatshirt.
