One Dead, Three Wounded in University of Texas Spree Stabbing; Suspect In Custody and Identified

I hope he wasn't armed with an Assault Knife with a tactical railing for mounting a laser sight a knife-bayonet (a bayonet blade you mount on a larger knife, for when your primary knife runs out of ammo).

It's a good thing no students were armed. That could have led to an Unacceptable Escalation (TM) of the Cycle of Violence (TM).

One student is dead and three others have been taken to the hospital after a reported stabbing attack on the University of Texas campus Monday afternoon, authorities said.

UT Police Chief David Carter identified the suspect in the attack as 20-year-old UT student Kendrex J. White.

Police got the call around 1:30 p.m. this afternoon about a person with a knife who attacked or assaulted someone outside the Gregory gym.

A UT police officer saw a man, later identified as White, with a "large, bowie-style hunting knife," Carter said. The officer drew his gun and told White to get on the ground, which he did, and police took him into custody.
