A Bank of America executive was killed during a stabbing in Times Square in New York City on Monday.
Erin Piacenti, 32, of Chester, New Jersey, was fatally stabbed by a female assailant on Monday afternoon.
The stabber, identified as 49-year-old Pamela Cisneros, was fatally shot by NYPD officers.
Dramatic video posted to social media shows the moment police officers shot a knife-wielding Cisneros.
Piacenti was stabbed in the abdomen in an “unprovoked attack,” NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said during a press conference.
Cisneros used two kitchen knives to carry out the attack. She also stabbed a 68-year-old man in the stomach but he survived.
The New York Post reported:
The woman killed by a knife-wielding maniac in Times Square was a young executive at Bank of America — who had recently celebrated her wedding anniversary, The Post has learned.
