Wig-Wearing Slasher Stabs 4 at AMC Theater, 2 More at McDonald’s Before Leading Police in Wild Car Chase

A knife-slinging slasher on Saturday attacked four girls at a Massachusetts movie theater, fled the scene, stabbed two more people at a nearby McDonald’s, and led police into a car chase before being arrested, authorities said.

The suspect, an adult man who was described by a witness as wearing “an oversized trench coat, sunglasses, and a long blonde wig,” strode into the Braintree AMC 10 without a ticket around 6 p.m. Saturday night, Braintree police said. He entered one of the theaters and encountered four girls, ages 9 to 17, and assailed them.

“Without saying anything and without any warning, he suddenly attacked and stabbed the four young females. The attack appeared to be unprovoked,” police said in a statement. The girls all sustained non-life-threatening injuries and were transported to Boston hospitals for treatment.
