Philadelphia cops are hunting a knife-wielding man -- identifiable by a missing front tooth -- who was captured on video stabbing an Uber driver in the chest last month during a terrifying attack the driver survived "by the grace of God."

The assault took place around 5 a.m. on Feb. 15 in the Port Richmond neighborhood, the Philadelphia Police Department said in a news release.

The 55-year-old victim was sitting in a vehicle, waiting to pick up a passenger when the unknown man walked up to the car, reached in through the driver's side window and stabbed him multiple times, officials said.

"By the grace of God it didn't turn out worse than it absolutely could have," Philadelphia Police Captain Sekou Kinebrew told WPVI-TV. "You see the strike points are right in the vital areas of the victim's body -- chest, neck head, right in there."

The victim was able to run away from the vehicle and contact police as the attacker fled.

The driver was later transported to an area hospital, where he was listed in stable condition, FOX29 reported.
