A violent incident occurred at Grand Central Terminal in New York City on a busy morning commute when 44-year-old Anthony Griffin attacked three individuals with a machete-like knife. The attack, which took place on the subway platforms, resulted in an 84-year-old man suffering serious head injuries, a 65-year-old man with an open skull fracture, and a 70-year-old woman with shoulder cuts. All victims were transported to the hospital with injuries reported as non-life-threatening. Police responded quickly after being alerted around 09:40 EDT. Griffin, who was acting erratically and claimed to be 'Lucifer,' was shot by officers after he refused to comply with orders to drop his weapon. He was later pronounced dead at Bellevue Hospital. Authorities confirmed that there was no suspected link to terrorism, and New York Governor Kathy Hochul condemned the attack as a 'senseless act of violence.' Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch noted Griffin had prior arrests but was not classified as emotionally disturbed in police records. The investigation is ongoing, and officials have advised the public to avoid the area.
