Marcus N. Marson, 25, demanded that his 37-year-old male driver give him the vehicle then stabbed him repeatedly on his head, shoulder, and arm, according to Bergen County Prosecutor Mark Musella and police paperwork.
The incident happened on Duncan Avenue at approximately 9:17 a.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 28, Musella said. By the time officers had arrived, Marson had fled the scene.
The victim was rushed to Hackensack University Medical Center, where he remains hospitalized in stable condition. Marson was tracked down and arrested in the backyard of an unrelated home on Buckingham Road following a brief foot pursuit, Musella said.
Marson was taken into custody and has been charged with first-degree attempted murder, first-degree attempted carjacking, third-degree aggravated assault, weapons offenses, and resisting arrest.
Marson was remanded to the Bergen County Sheriff’s Office pending his first court appearance at Bergen County Superior Court in Hackensack.
