A 27-year-old woman was stabbed by an assailant at a Chicago train station Saturday night, nearly three months after Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska was murdered by a knife-wielding attacker on Charlotte’s light rail system.
The incident occurred around 11:14 p.m. at the UIC-Halsted Blue Line platform near the University of Illinois Chicago. According to the Chicago Police Department, the victim was sitting on a bench when the alleged attacker plunged a knife into her chest.
After the attack, the suspect fled the scene, heading north on South Morgan Street. The woman sustained a laceration to her chest and was transported to a local hospital for treatment.
Police are actively searching for the armed suspect, who was last seen wearing a pink beanie, gray hooded jacket, orange sweatshirt, light blue jeans, white shoes, and carrying a gray backpack.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Area 3 Detectives at (312) 744-8261 or submit an anonymous tip at CPDTIP.com.
