Man Stabs Two Women to Death at a Mexico University
The assailant, described as a man around 20 years old, entered the campus of Centro Universitario UTEG carrying a knife and a hatchet, which he used to smash several windows. The attack appeared to have no apparent motive, with Mendez stating that the aggressor's violence was directed against the first people he saw.
A man fatally stabbed two women at a university in the western Mexico city of Guadalajara on Wednesday, according to state prosecutor Luis Joaquin Mendez.
The assailant, described as a man around 20 years old, entered the campus of Centro Universitario UTEG carrying a knife and a hatchet, which he used to smash several windows. The attack appeared to have no apparent motive, with Mendez stating that the aggressor's violence was directed against the first people he saw.
One man was also wounded during the attack. Police have arrested the assailant and are investigating his possible links to another woman found dead in a hotel on the same day.
The incident adds to the ongoing issue of femicide in Mexico, with at least 852 cases recorded last year in the violence-plagued country.
