Students at the University of California, Davis, should stay indoors as police hunt for a suspect after a third knife attack following two fatal stabbings in less than a week near campus
The startling advice for students not to venture out follows the killings Saturday evening of a UC Davis senior and Thursday of a 50-year-old man at different parks near campus. About 40,000 students are enrolled at UC-Davis while the city has some 68,000 residents.
The female victim told police the suspect stabbed her more than once through a tent, the release said. She was taken to UC Davis Medical Center, where she is in critical condition. "The suspect matches the description of previous stabbing incidents," campus police said early Tuesday as they announced the shelter-in-place alert shortly after the latest attack.
"At this time, it is strongly recommended that the community remain vigilant, be aware of your surroundings, and call the Davis Police Department if anyone acting violent, suspicious or matching the description provided is seen," police said.
