Philadelphia police have detained a woman who they say is a person of interest in two separate stabbing incidents on Saturday, one of which included a 1-year-old infant. According to officials, the first stabbing took place at around 8 a.m. on the 1300 block of Chancellor Street in Center City. The alleged suspect, Takeira Hester, 29, charged a 24-year-old woman stabbing her twice before taking off.
A few hours later, officials say Hester approached two infants being pushed in a stroller, stabbing one 1-year-old in the arm before fleeing the Rittenhouse Square section of Center City. In a press conference, officials said the attacks appeared to be random. 'This offender just runs up, quick stab, runs,' Philadelphia Police Captain Frank Banford said.
