An anonymous male who witnessed the incident notified one of our Officers on Patrol. Upon further investigation, the Officer ascertained that an employee from 425 Main St. walked over to Firefighter's Field, while on break. A male in a motorized wheelchair approached her and brandished a knife. She immediately returned to Building 425, and the male left the area. She did not report the incident, and refused NYPD response as well. We documented the incident anyway. No further information was given.
