Kansas TV Stabbing Incident: WIBW-TV Kansas Employee Stabbed by Intruder
Two people were injured during a bizarre Kansas TV station stabbing. A man broke into WIBW-TV on Wednesday morning, and he stabbed two sales employees before he was tackled by a host of others at the station.
It is incredibly strange that this man did this. He actually called the station's news director on the lobby phone. During the phone call he complained that Department of Veterans Affairs mishandled his case. What this has to do with the TV station is hard to know, but perhaps the man wanted to bring media attention to his case by getting it on TV.
Of course, what he did next went way too far. He threw a lamp through the glass doors, and ran down the halls of the station brandishing a knife as employees ran from him. Unfortunately, he was able to stab two employees, but they were not seriously injured, which is good news.
While this man may have wanted to bring attention to his problems with the VA, a TV station stabbing was not the best way to do it. Now he will be in trouble, and have legal problems to deal with in addition to whatever is going on with the VA.
It must have been scary inside WIBW-TV on Wednesday morning. Thank goodness employees were able to hold this man down until police arrived to arrest him because more people could have been injured or killed during the stabbing if it had gone on longer without the employees stepping in to stop him.
