Eight people were injured during a stabbing attack at a shopping mall in the state of Minnesota that ended with the suspected attacker — who was dressed in a private security uniform — shot dead by an off-duty police officer, authorities said.
St. Cloud Police Chief Blair Anderson says eight people were taken to St. Cloud Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries following the attack first reported about 8:15 p.m. Saturday at the Crossroads Center. One person was admitted. No further details were released.
Anderson said an off-duty police officer from another jurisdiction shot and killed the unidentified suspect, who was armed with a knife and wearing a private security firm uniform at the time of the attack.
