The suspect had fled westbound on East 176th Street, police said.

\"As we've said before, anyone who targets transit riders or employees will have their picture taken and the NYPD will bring them to justice,\" MTA Chief Safety and Security Officer Pat Warren said in a statement to ABC News on Sunday. \"In this terrible case, we thank detectives who used video from MTA cameras as part of a successful investigation resulting in rapid arrest of the suspect.\"

Earlier Thursday, at 5:15 p.m., a 45-year-old man was slashed in the face by a man who followed him into a Brooklyn subway station in East New York. The suspect in that case remains on the loose.

Just after 1 p.m., a 59-year-old man was stabbed in the back at a Harlem subway station. The victim was waiting for a train at the 125th Street station at St. Nicholas Avenue when he got into an argument with a man he didn't know, possibly after a harmless bump on the platform, police said.

The other man pulled a knife and stabbed the victim in the upper back. He was taken to Mount Sinai Morningside hospital in stable condition.

The suspect, a Black man wearing blue jeans, a blue jacket and blue-tinted glasses, ran off. He also remains at large.

Police have made more than 600 arrests for illegal cutting instruments on the subway so far this year. Transit Chief Jason Wilcox said that's a 95% increase from last year.

\"The events of yesterday, very disturbing,\" Wilcox said. \"We are going to be out there with the riders and for the riders, keeping them safe.\"
