Police arrested a naked man after he allegedly stabbed three people in downtown Seattle on Tuesday, authorities said.
The bizarre attack unfolded a little after 10 a.m. near Sixth Avenue and Olive Street, not far from Nordstrom’s corporate headquarters, witnesses and Seattle police said.
“One of the victims ran into a nearby store while the suspect fled the scene,” according to a police statement.
“Officers took the man into custody near 8th Avenue and Pine Street. Police also recovered the knife and the man’s clothes, which he had stripped off as he ran from officers.”
Christopher Morisette, 29, was arrested, police said.
