The 17-year-old was having a meal on the floor when she was attacked with a butcher knife Sunday. Officials say they aren’t yet ruling out hate crime charges.
A man accused of stabbing a transgender 17-year-old girl with a butcher knife at Miami International Airport on Sunday was arrested and charged with attempted murder, police said.
Alexander Love, 29, was charged with first-degree attempted murder with a deadly weapon and attempted premeditated murder, according to an arrest report from the Miami-Dade Police Department.
Officers responded to Terminal J around 11:30 p.m. after reports of a stabbing, officials said in a news release. The victim was eating a meal while sitting on the floor when, officials say, Love attacked her without provocation, stabbing her about 18 times in her face, head, arms, shoulders, neck and legs before he tried to throw her over a safety retaining glass, officials said.
Curious.
Was every person, passenger or not, screened?
If you went in, yes, you went through security. There was no pre-security area.
That would be the least-fun trip to the airport ever.
Not that any of the big ones are “fun”, anymore.
I think I can say with 100% certainty that I have never had fun in an airport pre-security area. What’s your idea of fun?
You were never at an airport before you were 12?
I was, but that doesn’t mean I had fun. It’s like going to a government building or a train station: it’s a purpose-built place where you have to behave and there aren’t really activities. How is that fun?
