From Fox News: Chicago police are on the hunt for a man who they say stabbed a woman in the chest without provocation on a train platform near the University of Illinois Chicago Saturday night.
The victim, a 27-year-old woman, was sitting on a bench at the train station when he allegedly approached her and plunged the knife into her chest at the UIC-Halsted Blue Line platform.
The woman suffered a minor injury and was taken to Stroger Hospital in good condition, a police spokesperson told Fox News Digital.
The suspect, described as a Black male who stands about 6 feet tall and weighs between 160 and 180 pounds, left on foot, headed northbound on South Morgan Street, according to city police.
FOX 32 Chicago released an image of the suspect taken from surveillance footage, which shows him carrying a long knife.
As of Tuesday, the man was still on the loose.
The report notes the horrific attack is eerily similar to the fatal stabbing of 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska, a Ukrainian refugee, by a Black man on a Charlotte commuter train in August.
However, in the Chicago stabbing, the victim is expected to live.
Police are looking for a suspect in connection with a stabbing at a CTA station over the weekend. https://t.co/vJJzKmjck6
