Man Stabs 12 in Spree at Oregon Homeless Shelter, Police Say
A man went on a stabbing spree at a homeless shelter in Salem, Ore., on Sunday, injuring 12 people — five seriously — before he was arrested near the facility, the authorities said. The man, Tony Latrell Williams, 42, of Bend, Ore., was talking with several people in the lobby of the facility, Union Gospel Mission, when he took out a knife and began stabbing people, the Salem Police Department said in news release. The victims ranged in age from 26 to 57, the police said. They said that two victims were staff members, and the 10 others were either guests at the shelter or were just outside the facility. Five of the victims, all men, remained hospitalized on Monday, the police said. The attack did not appear to have been targeted, though the investigation was continuing, the police said. Mr. Williams was arraigned on Monday on one count of attempted murder and 11 counts of second-degree assault, said Brendan P. Murphy, the chief deputy district attorney for Marion County, Ore. He did not enter a plea because he did not have legal representation, Mr. Murphy said. Mr. Williams is being held without bail at the Marion County Jail pending his next court appearance, set for June 9. Mayor Julie Hoy of Salem said in a statement it was not yet clear why the attack 'happened in our community.' 'We do know that this is a tragedy for the 12 victims and their families, the Union Gospel Mission community and Salem,' Ms. Hoy said. 'Today, we are praying for strength and peace for all victims and their families.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
