UPDATED: Multiple Stabbings Near Elm Street In Montclair Last Night

Tuesday, Apr 30, 2013 2:15pm  |  COMMENTS (20)

stabbingsUPDATE:

Detective Sgt. Wilhelm Young told Baristanet the attacks “can’t be labeled as random acts, at least not at this point.” The stabbings  occurred around 11:30pm on Fulton Street–a couple of houses west of Miller Street, says Young. The four victims, who were walking together before the attack, said they “couldn’t ID anyone,” according to Young. It was not clear whether the victims knew the attackers, or whether the faces of the attackers were visible. Young says it was also unclear how many attackers there were, putting the number at “two or more.” The victims were released from UMDNJ this morning. “Montclair is a safe town, but everyone should always be aware of their surroundings,” said Young.

Last night in Montclair, police were called to Elm Street on reports of a stabbing. The three victims could not identify their attackers, and say the attack was unprovoked.
