Two stabbings on the Upper West Side leave an Asian and a Jewish man injured but alive, prompting police to arrest 51-year-old Raul Morales — who allegedly shouted an Arabic phrase during both attacks. Authorities are investigating whether this was a hate crime, with no known link between the suspect and victims, and mental health as a possible factor. City leaders condemn the violence, highlighting a troubling rise in hate crimes — especially against Jewish and Asian communities — even as overall crime drops. Morales remains in custody as the investigation continues.
