NYPD: Woman Hospitalized Following Stabbing In Brooklyn

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- A vicious stabbing near Prospect Park in Brooklyn was caught on camera.

The unidentified man is seen approaching a 36-year-old woman in front of a home on Underhill Avenue and Park Place on Friday afternoon.

He then begins stabbing the victim multiple times, sending her to a local hospital with serious injuries.

Nearby residents said they were shocked by the violence.

"It's a very nice neighborhood. I don't think there's very much activity like that," one person said.

"I mean, they've been doing yoga in the streets on Underhill when they close the streets on weekdays. It's a community, ya know?" one person said.

Police do not believe the victim knew her attacker.
