Bharatbhai Patel, an Uber Eats delivery man who was stabbed on the Lower East Side by a robber who attacked him without speaking to him, lamented that no one on the street helped him.
Sean Cooper, a career criminal of 47 years with more than 100 arrests described by the police as a “super criminal”, was detained as a suspect.
“No one helped,” Patel told the New York Post yesterday. And he added that the attacker tried to steal his bicycle and did not say anything to him, he did not even ask for money. “The guy didn’t ask me anything” he insisted, showing his wounds.
Patel, of 36 years old, was attacked while making a delivery around 3am yesterday on Allen St near Rivington St, in Lower Manhattan. He lamented that he always sees NYPD officers, but none at the time.
Cooper, who has 100 previous arrests in his Haber allegedly grabbed Patel’s electric bike to take it away and when he held on to his work vehicle he was stabbed multiple times. The attacker then fled.
The delivery man was treated at Bellevue Hospital in stable condition. Cops then arrested Cooper, whose nickname is “Big Coop” and he is so well known to the NYPD that he earned the nickname “super criminal.”
