At least 11 people were injured in a stabbing in a Walmart store in the state of the west of Michigan on Saturday, authorities said, since the police confirmed that a suspect was in custody.
“We can confirm that 11 victims are being treated” after the attack in Traverse City, said Munson Medical Center in a statement on social networks.
The Michigan State Police said the authorities were investigating “a multiple stabbing incident” in the Walmart store in Traverse City.
“The suspect is in custody, the details are limited at this time,” the police added.
The hospital said he was experiencing a “volume of patients higher than usual.”
Traverse City is a popular tourist destination thanks to its proximity to Lake Michigan and the other great lakes.
