A shocking video shows the moment when a woman armed with two knives, who stabbed two people in Times Square, waved over New York police officers after prophesying a scary threat.
The images show Pamela Cisneros, 49, beaten by police and blending two large knives after killing a woman and wounding another man during a terrifying random attack on Monday afternoon.
“I’m not going to let go of anything; I’d rather kill them both, I’ll kill them,” Cisneros threatened the agents.
Several policemen tried to use her Taser guns, but she refused to fall, as shown in the video.
Two officers opened fire, wounding Cisneros, who had mental illness records in the department.

The video shows the woman on the ground, bleeding from a bullet wound in the chest.
The resident of Queens was later declared dead at the Bellevue Hospital.
Police spoke to Cisneros for about four minutes and gave him “numerous orders” to let go of the knives, but refused, New York police commissioner Jessica Tisch said in a press conference on Monday night.
The strikes and shootings occurred within about 20 minutes, causing terrorized tourists and passers to flee in search of safety.
Cisneros pulled out two knives from a Target red bag and stabbed the first victim, a 68-year-old man, in the abdomen as he left the metro on 41 West Street and waited to cross the street, Tisch explained.
The woman, armed with knives, continued to 42nd Street and stabbed a 32-year-old woman deadly in the abdomen in a “unprovoked attack,” the commissioner told reporters.
The cause is still unknown; however, it is not believed that the terrifying incident is related to terrorism.
“Our agents faced a rapidly evolving threat, with countless innocent people around them.
