Disturbing video shows machete-wielding NYC professor Shellyne Rodriguez chase Post staffers down street

Disturbing video shows the moment a machete-wielding Manhattan college professor menacingly chased a New York Post reporter and photographer down the street Tuesday.

Veteran scribe Reuven Fenton and a photographer had just left Shellyne Rodriguez’s Bronx apartment building — where she held the machete to the reporter’s neck after he knocked on her door to ask her about a viral video in which she curses out anti-abortion students.

She then followed The Post journalists out into the street, machete in hand, dashcam footage shows.

When the photographer snaps a picture of the now-former Hunter College art professor approaching them, she starts chasing after him down the sidewalk, forcing him to run into the middle of a busy roadway as traffic passes by, according to the video.

“If I see you on this block one more f–king time, you’re gonna …!” Rodriguez yelled at them.

“Get the f–k off the block! Get the f–k out of here, yo!”

She also kicked the reporter in the shins as he tried to get in his car.

Moments earlier, Rodriguez had held the machete to Fenton’s neck and threatened to “chop” him up after he knocked on her apartment door.

“Get the f–k away from my door, or I’m gonna chop you up with this machete!” the unhinged ex-professor shouted from behind her door after Fenton identified himself.

Seconds later, she thrust open the door and held the weapon to the reporter’s throat.

“Get the f–k away from my door!” she yelled repeatedly before then slamming the door.

The two Post employees immediately left the building, and she followed.

Hours after the terrifying incident, Rodriguez was fired from Hunter College, the Manhattan school confirmed.

“Rodriguez has been relieved of her duties at Hunter College effective immediately and will not be returning to teach at the school,” school spokesman Vince Dimiceli told The Post.

The photographer’s dash camera captured the moment Rodriguez followed them outside and chased them with a machete.

Rodriguez claimed their demonstration was “violent,” yelling at the male student behind the table that he wasn’t sorry “because you can’t even have a f–king baby,” the video shows.

She then pushed the anti-abortion materials off the table toward the students while exclaiming “F–k this s–t” and walked off, according to the footage.

The Post has also learned that Rodriguez is suing the NYPD, claiming officers abused her when she was arrested in the Bronx during a protest over the murder of George Floyd in June 2020.
