WASHINGTON — The stabbing suspect shot by a security guard at Union Station has died, according to D.C. Police.
Before people realized Friday’s incident at Union Station was a shooting, some thought it was a fire, some a construction accident and many thought it was a terrorist attack.
“I heard people yelling and screaming I was so scared and they said fire, fire, fire…and I said oh god I don’t want to die today,”one person told WUSA9.
Police said it was a domestic incident that began Friday afternoon at the sec building, connected to Union Station.
A security guard contracted with the sec saw the suspect stab a woman and then chased the suspect, according to authorities.
“[He] demanded that the individual drop his weapon, which he did not,” Commander Jeff Bandon said. “The individual turned on him with the weapon. The armed security officer fired one shot from his revolver striking the individual in his side one time.”
The man and the woman who was stabbed were both found conscious and breathing, according to police.
Hours later, the man died from that gunshot. Though not before causing panic at Union Station.
