A 56-year-old woman has been arrested after allegedly stabbing a teenager in the head multiple times in Bloomington, Indiana.
According to 13 WTHR, the incident occurred on Wednesday around 4:45 p.m. An 18-year-old from Carmel told police she was riding a Bloomington transit bus. The teen waited for the doors to open after the bus stopped a the intersection of West Fourth Street and the B-Line Trail.
Before the doors opened the young woman says another passenger hit her multiple times in the head. When she was treated at the hospital, doctors found multiple stab wounds.
The Bloomington Police Department has identified the suspect as Billie R. Davis. The Herald Times reports that the police believe a pocket knife during the attack. They also believe Davis targeted the teenager because she was Asian.
“Race was a factor in why she stabbed her. Davis made a statement that it would be one less person to blow up our country,” an affidavit states, according to The Herald Times.
