A deranged attacker randomly stabbed a stranger multiple times outside a Bronx deli on Tuesday — and cops were still hunting for the maniac a day later.

The fidgety attacker ambushed the 33-year old victim, knifing him multiple times in front of Ray Deli Food on White Plains Road near East 228th Street in Wakefield around 9 a.m., before fleeing on foot, police said. 

The two men said nothing to each other before the brutal attack, cops said.
