UNIVERSITY HEIGHTS, Bronx (WABC) -- Police released new video of an attacker wanted for a violent robbery in the Bronx.

It happened last month while the victim was sleeping in his car in University Heights.

Police say the suspect woke him up and forced his way inside.

He then threatened the man with a knife and told him to drive away.

At one point, the victim tried to make a run for it. But authorities say the suspect chased him down, stabbed him several times, robbed him, and then ran away.

The victim was taken to St. Barnabas Hospital with non-threatening injuries.

The suspect is described as a Hispanic man in his 20s. He was last seen wearing all dark clothing.

Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).
