4 dead, 7 injured during stabbing spree in Illinois
Four people were killed and seven were hurt when a man went on a stabbing rampage across multiple locations in a northern Illinois community. A 15-year-old girl, a 63-year-old woman, a 49-year-old man, and a 22-year-old man were killed in the incident and five others who were injured were transported to local hospitals with “serious injuries,” the Rockford Police Department said in a news release .
Five people were injured in the city of Rockford and two people were injured in the jurisdiction of Winnebago County, Rockford police spokesperson Michelle Marcomb told. A man, 22, has been arrested and is being questioned by police.
Police said the motive for the attacks remained unclear.
The home invasion occurred on Florence Street but the attacks unfolded at multiple locations, police say.
Winnebago Country Sheriff Gary Caruana said a young woman had sustained stab wounds to her hands and face after being seen running away from the suspect. Rockford Police Chief Carla Redd said that not all of the victims had been stabbed, but added that none had suffered gunshot wounds.
She said police did not believe there were any other suspects at large.
Not all of the victims found at multiple addresses in the city had stab wounds and none were shot, according to Redd. Redd said residents in the area were being asked to review their home surveillance camera footage for anything related to the attacks.
