A New York City couple who took their dog for a walk Wednesday afternoon turned the tables on a would-be mugger who had to be treated for stab wounds at the hospital, video shows.

The 37-year-old suspect snuck up behind the couple in the Woodside neighborhood of Queens around 2:40 p.m. 

The apparent targets were a woman holding a dog leash and a man who was riding a scooter and had his foot in a medical boot. Police had not identified them as of Thursday.

Surveillance video obtained by Fox News Digital shows the attacker stalking behind them as they make their way down a sidewalk.
