The two suspects had argued with the victim, 42, when “things got out of hand” and they slashed the victim in the torso, neck, arm and back, the NYPD said.

The “uncooperative” victim was taken to Mount Sinai Morningside Hospital in stable condition, police said.

There are no arrests.

The attackers were described as about 18 to 19 years-old and wearing black shirts.
