The 17-year-old was having a meal on the floor when she was attacked with a butcher knife Sunday. Officials say they aren’t yet ruling out hate crime charges.
A man accused of stabbing a transgender 17-year-old girl with a butcher knife at Miami International Airport on Sunday was arrested and charged with attempted murder, police said.
Alexander Love, 29, was charged with first-degree attempted murder with a deadly weapon and attempted premeditated murder, according to an arrest report from the Miami-Dade Police Department.
Officers responded to Terminal J around 11:30 p.m. after reports of a stabbing, officials said in a news release. The victim was eating a meal while sitting on the floor when, officials say, Love attacked her without provocation, stabbing her about 18 times in her face, head, arms, shoulders, neck and legs before he tried to throw her over a safety retaining glass, officials said.
I haven’t been to an airport in years where food was available outside the secure side.
I’ve never been in an airport that didnt have at least a food court, much less several branded restaurants, available in the general pre-security areas.
So, what do non-passengers eat while they’re waiting?
Bus drivers, limo operators, other services?
They do what?
Toronto Pearson, Terminal 1
NOTE - Before Security
Top of my head, Pearson, both terminals BEFORE security: Terminal 3: Subway, A&W, Freshíí, 3 Tim Hortons
Terminal 1: 4 Tims, Swiss Chalet, KFC, McD’s…
I’ve been there over 3,000 times.
