California stabbing spree: One person killed, three people wounded in Long Beach attacks; suspect in custody

A suspect is in custody after four people were stabbed, including one fatally, during a spree of stabbing attacks early Monday morning in Long Beach, California.

Four people were stabbed, including one fatally, over a span of about 90 minutes early Monday morning in Long Beach, California.

A suspect who is "experiencing homelessness" was arrested at the scene of the third stabbing near the beach while in possession of a knife, a spokesperson for the Long Beach Police Department said. Detectives are still trying to confirm that all three attacks are linked. 

The first call came in at about 5:35 a.m. Police responded and located a woman who had been stabbed multiple times in the upper body. She was transported to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead. 

Less than an hour later, police were called to a location in Long Beach about half a mile away from the first stabbing and found a man who had also been stabbed multiple times in the upper body. He was transported to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
