A French photographer who flew into New York to take his girlfriend on a surprise Valentine's date is recovering in the hospital after having his throat slit in Harlem.

Gabriel Bascou, 28, was slashed in a random attack in the street as he left an IHOP with his 23-year-old girlfriend Manon Duma on Friday.

Gruesome photos and a video shared by Bascou on social media show a deep gash on his neck from ear-to-ear as he lies in bed with a tube coming from his throat after a tracheotomy.

Police have charged 28-year-old local man Khalief Young with the crazed attack. He is said to have carried out at least two random attacks before.

Stupid Frenchie. I grew up in the NYC metro area. One learns never to go into the triple digit street numbers in Manhattan.

And who flies to New York City to eat in an IHOP? I didn’t even know we had them.

Does NYC have no go areas due to insane Muslim terrorists, like in Paris France?

Kalief Young, the NYC throat slasher.

Oh he learned, the hard way. Let me guess, the perp was released on his own recognizance.

“Khalief Young...is said to have carried out at least two random attacks before.”

Go stake him to a dog chain on Bloomberg’s front lawn! His policies allow for the Lunatics to run the Asylum!

Glad the guy survived. He is very, VERY lucky!

“slashed in a random attack”

It wasn’t random.

Instant cashless bail?

NYC has its own home-grown terrorists, they don’t need to import muslim ones.

Gee, Khalief should play the lottery. I mean the odds against him randomly attacking three people must be astronomical, but he beat those odds.

From NY Post

“On Oct. 20 last year, he rang his neighbor’s doorbell and punched the woman in the face and kicked her several times, the sources said.

Four months earlier in June, he went into a deli on West 135th Street and slashed a deli worker in the neck, police sources said.”

No bail this time. Freebies ran out.

Gabriel didn’t perform due diligence before visiting New York...of all that is unholy...and wound up with two tracheotomies.

An IHOP?

For Vaelntine date?

She probably wanted to slice him herself.

He’s a black with a name that is either Muslim or one of those faux African names American blacks like to name their kids. And even money odds he was out hunting whites.

What a terrible story, this poor man!

However, going to an IHOP in Harlem on a Friday night sounds REALLY dangerous to me.

The girlfriend is working as an au pair in Harlem.

People in Harlem employ au pairs now? Has it become gentrified?

What a miserable excuse for a Frenchman. Everybody knows that for Valentine’s Day, an IHOP in Harlem isn’t nearly as romantic as the hospital cafeteria in Wuhan, China. :-P

NYC has muslim community patrols, with their own special “police” cars.
