Police arrest a man after he allegedly attacked two women with a wire-cutting tool near Times Square.
Kevin Quillupang faces charges of assault and criminal possession of a weapon.
Officers responded Tuesday night to the incident in front of the Row Hotel on Eighth Avenue that is currently used as a shelter for immigrant asylum seekers.
Quillupang allegedly slashed the first victim in the back and then his mother before he was taken into custody.
Additionally, authorities found a pliers-type tool on the ground.
Both women were taken to an area hospital where they received treatment for their injuries.
