The three suspects in the slashing of a model’s face in New York were in protective custody on Riker’s Island after reports that one of them was assaulted and another had been threatened, officials said. The three are charged in the razor assault Thursday on Marla Hanson, 24, whose facial wounds required more than 100 stitches to close. Police charged that Steven Bowman, 27, and Daren Norman, 20, inflicted the wounds on instructions from Steven Roth, 28, Hanson’s former landlord. She has said she was trying to retrieve an $850 apartment security deposit from him at the time of the attack.
