NEW YORK, NEW YORK — A 60-year-old man jumped over the counter at the Museum of Modern Art and stabbed two employees after they refused him entry because his membership had been revoked due to previous incidents.
The two victims were rushed to the hospital for treatment. A 24-year-old female employee suffered stab wounds to her lower back and the back of her neck, while the other employee, a 24-year-old male, suffered a stab wound to his left collar bone.
The suspect managed to escape and is being sought by police. When police arrived, they performed a floor-by-floor search but could not locate the suspect.
A ‘stampede of people’ trying to exit the building was witnessed by people outside.
Apparently the suspect is a hardcore fan of art, and wasn’t going to let anyone get away with revoking his membership and denying him entry. This is exactly the reason why we promote the carrying of firearms, because any mentally deranged person could cross paths with you at any given time, for any reason imaginable.
Let’s hope police find this wackjob sooner than later.
