Investigators looking into a violent attack in New York City’s Times Square have uncovered new information about the woman accused of carrying it out. Pamela Cisneros, 49, allegedly stabbed two people in the busy tourist area before police officers shot and killed her at the scene.
One of the victims has been identified as a vice president at Bank of America, who died as a result of her injuries. Authorities have not yet released the identity or condition of the second person attacked.
As the investigation continues, reporters have found social media posts attributed to Cisneros dated November 30 and December 5, 2025, in which she reportedly referenced stabbing someone—posts that are now drawing scrutiny as police try to piece together a motive and assess whether there were warning signs before the attack.
Separately, members of Cisneros’s family have spoken publicly about her background, revealing that she had received a prior mental health diagnosis and had been involved in earlier incidents that may be relevant to understanding what led up to the Times Square attack.
The case has drawn significant attention in New York, both because of the high-profile location—one of the most heavily trafficked public spaces in the world—and because the victim was a senior banking executive.
