New York Post<\/a>: A man who was arrested for randomly slashing a woman\u2019s neck earlier this month in Brooklyn told police he attacked her because she is white, police sources said.<\/p>\n

Gregory Alfred, 25, told police he set out to find white people to slice back on Mar. 10 because he blamed them and \u201cthe system\u201d for preventing him from freely smoking weed, sources said.<\/p>\n

The slasher chose to take out his anger on 53-year-old Janina Popko, and cut her across the neck as she was walking near the corner of Beverly and Rugby roads that morning in Ditmas Park, sources said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s just a sick person,\u201d Popko told The Post on Tuesday. \u201cI\u2019m very lucky to be okay. I am still shaky.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI never was racial. I grew up in Poland , they never teach us to be racial,\u201d she added. \u201cI didn\u2019t grow up with this racial thing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alfred discarded a large kitchen knife, black plastic bag and an American flag bandanna after the attack. Cops were able to lift fingerprints from the items, the sources said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe had bought paring knives and kitchen knives and said he was going to stab people,\u201d NYPD Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce said at a Tuesday press conference at police headquarters.<\/p>\n
