REPORT: Once-deported illegal alien arrested after girl randomly stabbed at baseball game

9

From Fox News: A previously deported illegal immigrant from Honduras was arrested Sunday, authorities said, following an intense manhunt in Indiana after he was deemed a person of interest in the random stabbing of a teen girl at a baseball game.

The manhunt for Dimas Gabriel Yanez, 26, began Saturday after a 14-year-old girl was stabbed in the hand with a butcher-style knife while at her brother’s baseball game in unincorporated Lowell, Indiana, the Lake County Sheriff’s Office said.

When the girl’s mother tried to help, the suspect also tried to stab the mother before fleeing, according to authorities. The teen has since been treated and released from a hospital.

Authorities recovered a knife believed to have been used in the attack and named Yanez as a person of interest, warning the public that he should be considered armed and dangerous.


Yanez was finally caught Sunday afternoon when police spotting him running through a cornfield.  Just before he was apprehended, investigators say he was in the process of cutting his hair to try to change his appearance.

Yanez had reported been deported to Honduras back in 2018, but had returned to the U.S. again, illegally crossing the border.

He is currently being held at the Lake County Jail, the report states.
