The victim was hit in the left hip. He was treated at the scene for minor injuries, a police spokesperson said.

English — who sources described as “emotionally disturbed” — was charged with assault, criminal possession of a weapon and menacing after the grisly incident.

Cops described the two men as “strangers” to one another although they lived in the same building.
