A regular Monday unexpectedly turned fatal for one and life-threatening for several other New Yorkers on August 31, 2026, as Pamela Cisneros, 49, wielded two knives at a crowded Times Square.
After brutally attacking an elderly man and taking the life of a young woman, Cisneros, a mother of three from Queens, was cornered by NYPD officers at around 4:30 p.m. and was asked to drop her weapons.
Videos taken by eyewitnesses showed her issuing a chilling warning and charging at the cops before succumbing to their discharged firearms.
