PHILADELPHIA - Authorities say a woman is in custody after she "slashed" a man with a knife during an argument aboard a Market-Frankford line SEPTA train on Friday.
The victim was stabbed at least once in the hand between 15th and 30th Street Station aboard a train car with less than 10 riders.
A SEPTA spokesperson said the stabbing was not a "random incident."
