A security guard at New York University stabbed his boss five times in the back early Saturday in Greenwich Village, cops said.
The violence erupted shortly after 1 a.m. inside NYU’s residential hall building on Broome Street when an argument between the 45-year-old NYU public safety officer supervisor and a 38-year-old underling “turned physical,” law enforcement sources said.
“Two security guards at an NYU facility started fighting and one stabbed the other,” an NYPD spokesman said, confirming the victim was stabbed in the torso, neck and shoulder.
The supervisor suffered two fractured ribs and a collapsed lung, police sources told The Post.
He was transported to NYU Langone Hospital for treatment, the sources said.
The victim’s injuries are not life-threatening and he was listed in stable condition, police said.
The 5-foot-8 perpetrator ran off, and was last seen wearing his security uniform, a navy blue NYU Security jacket, navy blue cargo pants and a backpack, the sources said.
NYU did not immediately return messages.
