UPDATE 2: The MUSLIM who attacked NYC police with a meat cleaver turns out to be a Palestinian Arab (illegal alien?) who was in Manhattan to appeal his deportation order

MUSLIM ‘cleaverman’ Akram Joudeh (below) had been arrested 15 times since coming to New York, most recently two months ago, when he was caught carrying several knives and screaming “Allahu Akbar” in Arabic outside a Brooklyn synagogue.

EARLIER REPORT: [UPDATED!] NYC: ‘Akram Joudeh,’ who IS a Muslim, was shot by NYPD after attacking police officers with a meat cleaver

Muslim suspect Akram Joudeh was only in New York for Thursday’s Midtown rampage because he was appealing a deportation notice — with a hearing set for Oct. 14, a high-ranking NYPD source told the Daily News. Cops found knives inside Joudeh’s car after answering the July report of an erratic man on Shore Parkway in Brooklyn shout “Allahu Akbar!” — or “God is great” in Arabic.

The kind of meat cleaver the Muslim used

Joudeh was selling perfume out of his illegally parked car Thursday near Madison Square Garden when he attacked NYPD Detective Brian O’Donnell on a W. 32nd St. sidewalk, cops said.

The 16-year police veteran left a Manhattan hospital Friday sporting a blue NYPD windbreaker and a raw red gash on his cheek. O’Donnell was cheered by an assortment of fellow cops, doctors and family members as he exited Bellevue Hospital one day after he was gashed by the madman with an 11-inch blade.

“His bravery is amazing,” said Detectives’ Endowment Association President Michael J. Palladino. “He’s remarkably in good shape today as he goes out the door … His spirit is remarkably high.” According to Palladino, O’Donnell already endured one surgery and may need more on the wound that snaked along the left side of his face from the temple down to the base of his jaw.

O’Donnell was sliced after he tackled Joudeh, who had just climbed atop the front grill of a responding NYPD squad car, police said.  NYPD Cops shot the suspect six times after Joudeh ignored repeated calls to drop the cleaver, police said.

Joudeh, a career criminal who was likely living in his nearby parked car, went berserk when two police officers approached the vehicle — and went after the pair with the cleaver, police said.

The Muslim thug became enraged after several failed attempts to bash a traffic boot off his car’s wheel. Joudeh’s rap sheet included busts for larceny, criminal possession of stolen property, criminal mischief and unauthorized use of a vehicle.
