A migrant was stabbed near a Manhattan hotel-turned-shelter Tuesday evening after he got into a dispute with a group of men, cops and law enforcement sources said.

The man, 42, was knifed in the left hip around 6 p.m. outside 713 8th Avenue just steps from the Row NYC hotel, which was converted into a migrant shelter during the migrant crisis, authorities said.

The victim, a resident of the shelter, was quarreling with a group when the suspect pulled a cutting instrument and attacked him, police and sources said.        

The perp, who sources said was dressed in all-black, fled the scene and the victim was taken to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition, police said.

It was not immediately known if the alleged stabber was also a migrant, sources said.

The victim is not cooperating with investigators, according to sources.

The Row NYC, once a luxury hotel, was turned into a migrant shelter in 2022 as the Big Apple struggled with an huge influx of asylum seekers coming to the Empire State.
