A drunken New York City subway slasher wounded three men on a Grand Central Station platform with a folding knife before being wrestled down by police.

The altercation happened early Saturday as an uptown No. 6 train arrived at Grand Central.

Police said a fight started when the intoxicated man, Ivan DeLeon, bumped into a child while exiting the train, according to The Associated Press.

The child wasn't harmed.

The man who was stabbed in the chest was in critical but stable condition. The other two suffered less serious injuries.

DeLeon was arrested on charges of assault, menacing and criminal possession of a weapon. It wasn't clear if he had a lawyer.
