“Two guys got into it,” an MTA worker who witnessed the attack told the Daily News. “He was unconscious. He was bleeding from his face, shoulder and body. Blood everywhere. It looked bad.”

“One of them pulled a knife and stabbed him multiple times,” the worker said, adding the victim staggered up to the mezzanine and collapsed near a turnstile.

Medics transported the victim to Mount Sinai Morningside in stable condition.

Responding officers arrested Victor Solis, 58, at the scene and recovered the knife. Solis was charged with assault and criminal possession of a weapon. He lives in Inwood, according to cops.

Solis’ arraignment in Manhattan Criminal Court was pending Wednesday.
