MIDTOWN EAST, Manhattan (WABC) -- Police shot and killed a machete-wielding man on a subway platform at Grand Central Terminal on Saturday morning after he stabbed three people, according to the NYPD.

 

The deadly police-involved shooting happened around 9:30 a.m.

 

Police say Anthony Griffin, 44, boarded a 7 train at Vernon Boulevard and arrived a short time later at Grand Central. It was there where he stabbed an 84-year-old man on the No. 7 train platform before he moved upstairs to the No. 4, 5 and 6 train platform and slashed two more victims, police said.

 

Two NYPD detectives working an overtime transit detail encountered one of the victims walking up the steps as they responded. The detectives later encountered Griffin, who had a knife.
