Witness: Several Victims After Stabbing Inside Mall of America

Source: http://breaking911.com/

MINNESOTA — Witnesses say several people were stabbed inside the Mall of America Sunday night.

According to the Star Tribune, the attack occurred in the men’s department at Macy’s on the first level. ‘One person was stabbed in the back; another was stabbed multiple times. The suspect also was wounded. The reports said two people have been taken to Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis.’

Police said a suspect was in custody and the stabbing was the result of a thief trying to steal a customer’s property from a dressing room—and was confronted by customer. The suspect has been identified as 20-year-old Mahad Abdiaziz Abdirahaman, of Minneapolis.

I spent some time in Minneapolis and loved it, what a great city! Back in the day I worked at Figlio, on Hennepin Avenue and Lake Street.

Thankfully no one was killed.
It won't be long until the tRumpsters turn this into a 'terror' attack followed by more islamophobia.
I travel to Minneapolis often and the large Somali community is wonderful. Minneapolis/StPaul is one of our most diverse cities.
I hope the victims heal quickly and the child with the knife gets his life on track.
