From the Daily Mail: An Arizona college student is in the hospital after being stabbed at random by a fellow classmate who seemingly snapped the night before the attack – and picked her because she was an ‘easy target’.
ASU student Mara Daffron, 19, was attacked as she walked into her Glendale classroom on September 19.
Fellow student Kaci Sloan jumped up from her seat and stabbed Daffron twice in front of horrified classmates.
The suspect attempted to stab Daffron a third time but was fought off by another student.
Daffron was able to flee from the classroom to a courtyard, where she was met by paramedics.
According to police, Sloan had written notes confirming she planned the attack the night before, and came to class with the intent to “hurt somebody.” The notes reportedly stated she decided to go after Daffron because she was an ‘easier’ target than another person she was originally considering attacking. Sloan has now been hit with multiple charges including attempted murder in the first degree.
Daffron was rushed to the hospital where she underwent surgeries to repair injuries to her tricep and spleen. She is now home, but has a long road to recovery, according to a GoFundMe account established for her.
