March 13 (UPI) — Police in New York City on Sunday said they are searching for Gary Cabana who is accused of stabbing two employees at the Museum of Modern Art a day prior. Police on Sunday released graphic security camera footage of the Saturday attack, showing a knife-wielding man with a mask dangling from his neck sprinting through the revolving doors of the museum and then jumping over the reception desk, cornering three people.
The video shows the suspect thrust the knife repeatedly at two of the people who eventually manage to run away while the third cowers under the desk.
The incident occurred at around 4:15 p.m. when police said Cabana was denied entry to the MoMA after presenting the employees with a membership card that had been recently revoked due to two separate disorderly incidents at the museum.
A man and a woman, both 24, were stabbed in the attack and suffered “serious physical injury,” NYPD Crime Stoppers said.
On Saturday, authorities said the two workers had been stabbed in the back, collar bone and neck.
The museum was closed on Sunday and would reopen Tuesday, it said.
“Thank you for your incredible support,” MoMA tweeted late Sunday.
