Four other people were also knifed but survived the attacks.<br \/>\nMr  Gelman was finally arrested on a train on Saturday morning after a  all-night manhunt, police said. Charges against him are pending. &#8220;It&#8217;s  so horrendous and bizarre. We have no reason to know why he did this,&#8221;  said Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly.<br \/>\nHe said he had not  recalled seeing &#8220;anything like this&#8221; in the decades he had worked for  the New York police department. Police said the suspect had stabbed  three people to death, hijacked two cars, ran over a pedestrian, and  attacked several others in the violent spree which covered three New  York City boroughs.<br \/>\nThe attacks are said to have begun after 0500  local time (1000 GMT) on Friday when Mr Gelman allegedly killed his  step-father, Aleksandr Kuznetsov, in Brooklyn&#8217;s Sheepshead Bay  neighbourhood.<br \/>\nThe suspect had had a fight with his mother after  she refused to allow him to use her car, a Lexus, and 54-year-old Mr  Kuznetsov had intervened, police said.<br \/>\nLess than six hours later,  at about 1030 local time, Mr Gelman then went to his ex-girlfriend&#8217;s  home, where he killed her 56-year-old mother, Anna Bulchenko, according  to Commissioner Kelly.<br \/>\nReturning home, Yelena Bulchenko, 20, is  said to have discovered her mother and called police. The attacker, who  was still in the house, then chased her outside and stabbed her 11  times, police said. Police said he then drove away in the Lexus, hitting  another car in Brooklyn&#8217;s Midwood neighbourhood.<br \/>\nWhen the driver  confronted him, Mr Gelman allegedly stabbed him three times in the  chest. The victim survived and is in a stable condition. The suspect  then allegedly hit a pedestrian, 62-year-old Stephen Tanenbaum, who died  of his injuries.<br \/>\nAt about 0100 local time on Saturday, the  suspect then confronted a cab driver in the Crown Heights area, stabbing  him. He then approached a couple in a Nissan and knifed the man in the  hand several times before taking their car. Both men survived.<br \/>\nLater  that morning, according to Commissioner Kelly&#8217;s account, a passengers  on an upper Manhattan train got off and told police officers a man  fitting Mr Gelman&#8217;s description had knocked a newspaper out of her hand  and said: &#8220;Do you believe what they&#8217;re writing about me?&#8221;<br \/>\nPolice  say Mr Gelman then got off the train, crossed the tracks and boarded a  different train, where he then stabbed a passenger.<br \/>\nMr Gelman made his way up to the driver&#8217;s compartment and knocked on it, claiming to be police, Commissioner Kelly said.<br \/>\nA  police officer in the driver&#8217;s cab opened the door and wrestled Mr  Gelman to the ground, knocking a knife from his hand, police said,  before he was taken into custody. Police described the suspect as an  unemployed drug user with 10 previous arrests, mostly linked to graffiti  and drugs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A man fatally stabbed his step-father, ex-girlfriend and her mother, before running over a pedestrian, in a 28-hour rampage in New York City, police said.
