The officer who shot the suspect has been placed on administrative leave, which is standard practice for such investigations.
A Montgomery County police officer fatally shot a man suspected of stabbing four people in the Aspen Hill area on Saturday morning, police said.
Francke said preliminary information show the stabbings appeared to be random. One of the victims was stabbed near Unique, two were stabbed at a yard sale on Colie Drive and the fourth victim was found by police in the area.“On a Saturday afternoon, when folks are having a yard sale and just shopping at a very popular thrift store, we don’t expect this,” Francke said. “We certainly don’t accept it.
Francke said an officer fired multiple rounds at the suspect. Police administered first aid, but the suspect was pronounced dead at the scene. Police did not immediately release the suspect’s name.
