In a chilling reminder of vulnerabilities on public transportation systems, a 27-year-old woman was recently stabbed in the chest in an unprovoked attack at a Chicago train station late Saturday night—echoing the fatal stabbing of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on a light rail in Charlotte, North Carolina, nearly three months earlier.

The most recent incident unfolded at around 11:14 p.m. on November 8th at the UIC-Halsted station on the CTA Blue Line, near the University of Illinois Chicago campus in the Near West Side neighborhood.

The 27-year-old female victim, whose name and photo has not yet been released publicly, was reportedly sitting alone on a bench on the train platform when a male suspect approached her, pulled a large knife from his backpack, and plunged it into her chest before fleeing northbound on South Morgan Street.

She suffered a deep laceration to the chest but was later listed as being in stable condition at a nearby hospital after receiving treatment, according to Chicago police.

Authorities described the assailant as being a Black male who is approximately “6-feet-tall” and weighing between “160 and 180 pounds (lbs).”
