NEW YORK CITY — Cops are looking for man they said cut up a victim's face within a Broad Street deli on April 21, they said.

The suspect barged into the Diamond Deli at 171 Broad St. about 6 p.m. and slashed the victim in the face multiple times with "a sharp object" before fleeing the scene, according to the NYPD.

The victim, whose identity was not immediately released, was treated and released from Richmond University Medical Center, police said.

It remains unclear why the suspect, whom cops said was last seen wearing an orange hoodie, attacked the victim.
