From nypost.com/2024/11/18:

A blood-covered lunatic toting two knives trekked across Manhattan in a savage broad-daylight stabbing spree that left a woman and two men dead Monday, cops said.

The sick suspected stabber – a mentally ill homeless man with eight past arrests in New York City alone – was stopped by a hero cop thanks to the help of good Samaritans, including a cab driver and a British tourist, said NYPD Chief of Detectives Joe Kenny and police sources.

Ramon Rivera, 51, was identified by sources as the person of interest in custody, seen with a long beard and unwieldy hair in a grizzled mugshot obtained by The Post. Police have no other suspect in the spate of “unprovoked” random attacks, said Mayor Eric Adams during a morning briefing.

“Today, we have three innocent New Yorkers, just going about their lives, who were the victim of a terrible, terrible assault,” he said. “It is a clear, clear example of the criminal justice system, mental health system that continues to fail New Yorkers.”

The suit, from Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, alleges that FEMA Director Deanne Criswell and now-fired supervisor Marn’i Washington conspired against the civil rights of Trump supporters in Lake Placid, Florida. The suit comes after whistleblowers told The Daily Wire they were directed to bypass the homes of people with Trump flags or yard signs when canvassing homes in Lake Placid to see if they qualified for hurricane assistance after Hurricane Milton.

“While the facts will continue to come out over the weeks and months, it is already clear that Defendant Washington conspired with senior FEMA officials, as well as those carrying out her orders, to violate the civil rights of Florida citizens,” the suit says
