A woman allegedly stabbed a CTA worker in the neck after the man accidentally sprayed her with water, according to Chicago police.

       The man, 49, had been working in the Loop, washing the platform at the State/ Lake “L” station, 188 N. State St., about 10:45 p.m., according to a media notification from Chicago police.
