SAN FRANCISCO – Police arrested a man who they say is suspected of stabbing two Asian American women without warning Tuesday afternoon in San Francisco’s Mid-Market area.
Officers were sent to 4th and Stockton streets shortly before 5 p.m. and found the wounded women, who were taken to a hospital.
There was no immediate word on their conditions. Witnesses told KPIX-TV that one woman appeared to be elderly and the other appeared to be in her 30s.
They told the station that a man clutching a knife was walking down Market Street when he approached a bus stop, stabbed the women, and then walked away.
