The suspect, identified as Ralph Neptune, is loaded in a police van after allegedly stabbing a library patron.
An enraged homeless man who accused another patron at the Brooklyn Heights library of looking at porn slashed the man across the face yesterday, police sources said.
The suspect, identified as Ralph Neptune, shouted as he was being led out in handcuffs, “I’m innocent. My wife was there and he’s looking at porn.”
The bloody attack took place at around 7:20 p.m.
It wasn’t clear if the victim was actually looking at anything pornographic.
The 52-year-old victim’s injuries were not considered life-threatening.
Charges were pending against Neptune.
