The man stabbed by a homeless illegal migrant on a light rail train in North Carolina last week was a good Samaritan who was just trying to protect people when attacked, prosecutors revealed Monday.

The badly injured Charlotte passenger, Kenyon Dobie, 24, said in an online post that he is still in critical condition, with a tube pumping blood from his lungs.

Victim Kenyon Dobie said Monday that the attack left him with a tube in his chest pumping blood from his lungs. gofundme

“My body has taken plenty damage,’’ Dobie said on a GoFundMe page. “Have a tube running from my chest to a machine pumping blood out of my lungs.’’

Prosecutors said Honduran national Oscar Solarzarno, 33, was swigging booze and yelling at riders when Dobie stood up and told him to stop on the Friday night train.

Solarzano knifed him in the chest for his efforts, prosecutors said at a hearing Monday, according to WSOC-TV.

Solarzano had already been banned from the light rail system before allegedly getting drunk on the train and attacking Dobie.

The ban is part of a long rap sheet for Solarzano that includes multiple arrests, a robbery conviction — and two deportations.

Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska, 23, was stabbed to death on another Charlotte light rail train in August.

Solzarno fled the train, but police caught up to him, and Solzarno allegedly admitted to the attack — with eyes red and reeking of alcohol.

The grizzly assault occurred just four months after the horrific Iryna Zarutska killing by a homeless man on another Charlotte train.

Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security Tricia Lockwood said Solarzano had been deported from the US twice before illegally returning to the country again for a third time.

“His criminal history includes prior arrests for aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, destroying evidence, resisting arrest, using a false ID, and convictions for robbery and illegally re-entry,” she wrote on X.

Solzarno faces new charges of first-degree attempted murder, assault with a deadly weapon causing serious injury, breaking and entering, carrying a concealed weapon and being intoxicated and disruptive, according to court records. He is being held without bond.

His vicious attempted murder comes just four months after the heinous killing of 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee Zarutska.

She was stabbed multiple times in August by a homeless career criminal on the the Lynx Blue Line in Charlotte, where she had taken refuge after fleeing her homeland for a safer life following the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine war.

Decarlos Brown Jr., 34, was identified as the suspect and charged with first-degree murder.

The homeless schizophrenic was seen on surveillance footage unfolding a pocket knife and moving to plunge it into the innocent 23-year-old as she absentmindedly stared at her phone in the seat in front of him, authorities said.

Chilling videos obtained by The Post showed him calmly walking off the train after fatally slashing Zarustka three times — including once in the neck.
