Knife-wielding madman attacks 4 girls at AMC theater, 2 others at McDonald’s in Massachusetts stabbing spree: police

A knife-wielding madman, connected to a murder investigation, attacked four girls inside a movie theater before injuring two others at a McDonald’s during his stabbing spree on Saturday.

The unprovoked attacks began around 6 p.m. inside the AMC Braintree 10 when the armed suspect walked into the complex, past the ticket booth and entered one of the theaters without paying.

The suspect stabbed the four girls, whose ages ranged from 9 to 17, without saying a word, Braintree police said Saturday night.

The girls were rushed to Boston-area hospitals and treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

An AMC employee working concessions at the time of the initial stabbings described the man as wearing “an oversized trench coat, sunglasses, and a long blonde wig,” according to CBS Boston.
