At least six victims were injured in the capital of the nation on Thursday after an intoxicated suspect began to random people in the street, including himself.
The incident was reported around 3:22 pm in the Trinidad neighborhood of Washington DC on Thursday afternoon. The officers of the Metropolitan Police Department arrived at the scene and found “numerous people suffering from the white weapon.”
Pamela Smith, head of the Metropolitan Police Department, told reporters at a press conference that the suspect was “in an altered mental state of an unknown substance.”
“While walking down the street, the individual began to stab himself, and then stabbed a famous female who was also with him,” Smith described.

“Four women and two men were transported to hospitals in the area as a result of a meaningless assault.”
All victims are in stable conditions from Thursday night. Two of them included good Samaritans who tried to save others from the attacker.
“I will say this, although we are grateful for their intervention, we would ask that people who see incidents like this do not intervene, because these two individuals, although good Samaritans, were also stabbed as part of this assault,” said Smith.
Smith also pointed out that the suspect “tried to assault” a grandmother and two granddaughters, but did not reveal if they were injured.
