FORDHAM HEIGHTS, the Bronx — A father riding the subway with his 4-year-old daughter in the Bronx was threatened and spit on after asking a man not to smoke on the train earlier in September, according to the NYPD.
Police said it happened around 3:20 p.m. back on Sept. 5 as the dad and daughter were aboard a southbound D train.
An unidentified man sitting in the same car was smoking alleged marijuana while riding the train, authorities said.
The father, 35, asked the man not to smoke aboard the train, a which point the other man started yelling at the dad and little girl, according to police.
The man allegedly spit on them and even pulled out a knife and threatened them, officials said.
Video released by the NYPD shows the suspect appearing to yell at and harass the dad and his young daughter.
The victims got off the train at the Fordham Road station while the suspect stayed on the subway, according to police.

I don’t even see this as a marijuana story.
I just see the need for street justice to be openly used against people who are rude and threatening. The guy pulled a knife on a father and his young daughter. Somebody should have just shot him. And the city should present the shooter with a certificate of gratitude and $100.
This was one lucky somebitch. He should have been shot dead on the spot.
This actually appears to be a hate crime to me - note the race of the father.
It’s the rot in the cities.
Sane people need to flee the Blue Hives they way they would flee a plague infected sewer.
SPJNK.
People behaving badly in NYC. That’s not breaking news that’s expected.
Maybe take it up with the libtard mayor that’s responsible for the mess.
With so much looting and killing I doubt weed Karens will be a high priority.
Is by-and-large, I try to avoid meddling in other peoples affairs while riding the New York City subway.
Other peoples’ affairs include the air they and their children must breathe. Boiling point will be reached on that, in time.
I have not heard of an instance, but I wonder if a worker in certain industries who is required to pass a drug test, might fail that drug test, and have to explain, “I don’t use drugs, but there was this one time when I rode the subway with my daughter ...”
If the smoke becomes unavoidable, it can have unforeseen consequences for some.
You chose your screen name wisely.
Absolutely no doubt that if the races were reversed, the Bronx would be burned to the ground by now.
My patronymic settler ancestor is recorded in the 1664 New Netherlands census. My family has always been in New York, before it was New York. I loved New York growing up, but hate it today. (I am about a free of racial animosity as it is possible to be.) The rot started with John Lindsay.
People have to leave the state, or at least go way up north and get off the grid as much as possible. NY is FUBAR, IMHO. The parasite-host ratio will always drain your life blood, and the politicos will always cater to the parasites over the hosts.
The guy subjected them to forced drugging by marijuana (a situation becoming increasingly common, not just in NYC). Father didn't approve.
That was the case when I last rode the New York City subways some 25 years ago.
Now, I avoid any possible conflict with the rude, the crazy or the criminal in New York City's subways because I don't ever visit the city.
This is not Rudy Giuliani's New York City any more.
There’s more red tape to jump through to get a pistol in NYC than to build a skyscraper.
