South Korean police have detained a man suspected of stabbing a high school teacher with a knife in the city of Daejeon. The stabbing follows a separate attack on Thursday in which 14 people were wounded near a busy subway station in Seongnam.
South Korean police detained a man suspected of stabbing a high school teacher with a knife Friday in the city of Daejeon.
At least two people were in life-threatening conditions after Thursday’s attack in Seongnam, in which a car rammed onto a sidewalk before the driver stepped out and began stabbing people at random at a shopping mall linked to the Seohyeon subway station at the heart of a bustling leisure and business district.
The suspect purchased the two knives he used in the stabbings from a different shopping mall on Wednesday, Park said, but there isn’t clear evidence he planned the attack in advance. “Suddenly, someone told us the person who committed the crime was coming up to the second floor, so we ran away in panic,” he said. He ended up hiding inside a refrigerated storage room with some mall employees.Thursday’s attack was the country’s second mass-stabbing case involving random targets in a month., killing one person.
