At least 11 people were injured in a stabbing on Saturday afternoon at a Michigan Walmart, UpNorthLive, the NBC affiliate in Traverse City, reported.
The Grand Traverse County Sheriff’s Office confirmed the stabbing occurred at a Walmart in unincorporated Traverse City, south of the city limits. One suspect was in custody, and the weapon appeared to be a folding knife, authorities said.
Munson Healthcare, which operates Munson Medical Center in Traverse City, said those injured were being treated at its facility.
“…We can confirm that 11 victims are being treated at Munson Medical Center,” the health care system said, in part. “As a result, our Emergency Department is currently experiencing a higher-than-usual volume of patients. We are working closely with local authorities and emergency services to ensure the best possible care for those impacted…”
Video footage posted on social media showed a large presence of emergency personnel at the location. Drivers were asked to avoid the area as the investigation remained ongoing, state police said.
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said her office was in contact with police about the “horrible news.”
“Our thoughts are with the victims and the community reeling from this brutal act of violence,” she said.
FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said in a social media post that bureau officials were responding to “provide any necessary support.”
