“Four women and two men were taken to a regional hospital due to the pointless attack.”

As of Thursday night, all victims were in a steady state. Two of them included the Good Samaritans, who tried to save others from the attackers.

“I would say so, even if we thank them for their intervention, we would ask people who see such incidents not to intervene, because these two men, though good Samaritans, were also stabbed part of the attack,” Smith noted.

Smith also noted that the suspects “try to beat” a grandmother and two granddaughters, but did not disclose whether they were injured.
