Police received a tip about the stream in the city of Rockford, about 150 kilometers northwest of Chicago, shortly after 1:00 p.m. (7:00 p.m. SE). The day’s injuries were not caused by a deadly weapon, but not all victims have stab wounds, said Rockford police officer Carla Reddov. One of the wounded is in critical condition, the other is in stable condition.
At this time, we do not have a clear motive, what led this individual to do such a terrible thing, she said.
Among the two are a 15-year-old woman, a 15-year-old woman and two men aged 49 and 22, the CBS website reported. According to Winnebago County Sheriff Gary Caruana, he broke into his home at the intersection of Florence Street and Eggleston Road. A young woman who tried to get away was stabbed in the face and hands. The man who tried to help him suffered a stab wound, Caruana told CBS News.
One of the local residents told the WREX-TV television station that the police intervened against the Tonka in one of the houses, from where they took him out covered in blood in handcuffs.
According to AP, the crime took place a few days after a young Walmart employee entered the store after stabbing him in Rockford.
