The 34-year-old male victim was stabbed twice in the back by 18-year-old Angelo Rivera Sunday morning on a northbound E train at the Lexington Avenue and 53rd Street station.

In a remarkable coincidence, both men were arrested in separate incidents in different police precincts on April 4.
They both ended up in Queens Central Booking, where they started fighting in the same holding cell.
Then on Sunday morning, they ran into each other again on the same subway train, and that's when the stabbing happened.

Rivera and two others are still on the loose.
