Two women were stabbed outside 83 Main. St in downtown Haverstraw village this afternoon. They were rushed to the hospital and their severity of their condition has not been reported by police at this time.
A witness told the Rockland County Times that he saw one female laying down with a stab wound to her neck and a second victim, also visibly bleeding, standing near the female who was on the ground. Police did not confirm whether the assailant of the two girls was a male or female but witnesses said they believe it was a female.
Lt. Marty Lund of Haverstraw PD said the department would be releasing a statement later this evening or tomorrow morning regarding the crime and the medical condition of the victims.
Today’s double stabbing follows an attempted murder last week in Rt. 9W commercial district of West Haverstraw, in which a male stabbed his estranged girlfriend.
