New Jersey merengue singer, Javier Gutierrez, is recovering after a horrific Manhattan knife attack. The popular musician was visiting friends in NYC when the attack occurred.
Gutierrez, 43, aka ‘Mala Fe’ was traveling in a vehicle to meet fellow musicians for a performance in Washington Heights when an altercation broke out with a group of teenagers crossing the street.
While on 180th Street and Audubon Ave, Gutierrez says a group of teenagers would not get out of the street, and wanted to fight him. From there, it turned violent quickly. Gutierrez says someone broke his back window, so he got out to investigate. Moments later, he says more boys came and he was savagely attacked. Even as he was crumbled on the ground, Gutierrez tells Eyewitness News that the blows continued. source
The driver of the van was also attacked, but he escaped calling Gutierrez’s wife, Anays Diaz and telling her that her husband might be dead.
Gutierrez is now reportedly recovering from the attack at home.
Gutierrez says he believes one of the teenagers actually recorded the attack, which occurred just a few blocks from the 34th Precinct. He now has to cancel his upcoming concerts while he recovers and waits for arrests.
