The 38-year-old victim tried to intervene after he saw two unidentified individuals clashing on Oct. 16. outside an apartment building near Third Ave. and E. 135th St. in Mott Haven. One of the combatants then made verbal threats to the victim before knifing him in the back.
The suspect then fled the scene on foot.
EMS transported the critically injured victim to Lincoln Hospital where his condition stabilized.
Cops released a photo of the suspect on Saturday hoping the community can identify him.
