A man got stabbed in the back with his own knife during a wild brawl inside of a Harlem subway station on Monday morning, according to the NYPD.
The 51-year-old victim and an unidentified man exchanged words at around 6 a.m. on the mezzanine level of the 125th Street station, police said.
Surveillance video released by cops shows the suspect pulling out “two metal objects” — which appear to be broken umbrella handles — and squaring up for a fight.
The victim then produced a pair of knives and began going toe-to-toe with the other man, according to the footage.
At one point, the unidentified man suddenly grabbed the victim and held him up against a wall, before slamming him to the ground.
A woman in a red coat can be seen rushing over to help and trying to pull the man off of the victim, to no avail.
The man was able to get ahold of one of the victim’s knives — and stabbed him in the back multiple times, police said.
First responders took the injured man to Harlem Hospital. He was in stable condition.
Cops are looking for the other man, who fled on foot.
