GREENWICH VILLAGE, NEW YORK - A homeless, “emotionally disturbed” man with nearly a dozen prior busts stabbed a 51-year-old straphanger inside a Greenwich Village subway station during the Thursday morning rush – knifing him in the back moments after the two feuded on board a train, cops and sources said.

The two men – who did not know each other – clashed on board a Brooklyn-bound D train at West 4th Street around 7:30 a.m., cops said.

As the pair got off the train, the suspect – later identified as Justice Jackson, 30 — knifed the victim in the back, cops and sources said.

Justice Jackson, 30, allegedly stabbed a 51-year-old man in the back during a clash on board a southbound D train Thursday morning, cops said.

The victim was taken by EMS workers to Bellevue Hospital, where he was listed in stable condition, police said.

Meanwhile, Jackson — seen in a surveillance image wearing dark gray sweatpants, a black shirt and black slippers — hopped back on the train, sources said.

He was arrested more than 24 hours after the attack – around 1 p.m. Friday – and charged with both felony and misdemeanor assault, cops said.

Jackson has 11 previous arrests on his record — and is known as both a grand larceny recidivist and a repeat offender in the city’s transit system, the sources said.
