At least four woman were injured and a suspect was arrested after a mass stabbing in a Downtown Los Angeles restaurant.
Los Angeles Fire officials responded to two locations in the 500 block of West 7th Street at 5:14 p.m Sunday, one of them being upscale “dinner and a show” restaurant Zaya. The street was closed and witnesses watched as a woman in her 30s was taken to hospital suffering lacerations to her wrist.
Early reports say the stabbing happened after a fight broke out between the group of women. Four women between the ages of 26 and 37 were injured.
Witnesses reported seeing the stabber fleeing with a folding knife along 7th Street and Grand Avenue.
Citizen footage showed dozens of firefighters and cops at the busy intersection that was shut down Sunday night.
Other video showed a woman in a white dress being wheeled into the back of an LAFD ambulance.
LAPD Central Division posted: “Reports of multiple people injured at 7th St and Flower. Officers have responded and closed off the area. Expect traffic delays in the area.”
Police closed the street after the attack in Zaya on 7th Street.
Zaya is a lounge-style venue on 7th street. The restaurant markets itself as an upscale “dinner and a show” destination. The spot is known for its dim lighting, cocktails and live performances and is designed to feel more like a private party than a traditional restaurant, with tightly packed seating and a nightlife-driven crowd.
