Bay Area Rapid Transit police have identified the suspect in an allegedly unprovoked stabbing attack on a 54-year-old woman Saturday evening.

Surveillance camera images led to the identification of 34-year-old man described as being 5’8″ and weighing 160 pounds, who, on the day of the attack, had black braided hair tied in a knot on top of his head and a mustache. He was wearing a plain black jacket with orange lining, a black shirt with a large white logo, gray and black cargo pants, and brown and black boots, while carrying a duffle bag.

The suspect allegedly slashed the neck of the victim, described as an older Asian woman, as she exited the Antioch-bound train at the 24th Street and Mission Station in San Francisco shortly after 8 a.m.

The victim was transported to the hospital with serious injuries, while the suspect fled the scene. The victim’s name is not being released at the time.

BART police stated in a news release that the suspect “should be considered dangerous, and members of the public should not approach him.”

Last month, four teenage girls were arrested for beating and robbing a 34-year-old woman at the Lake Merritt BART station in Oakland. Meanwhile in July, a 74-year-old woman from Daly City was pushed to her death onto an oncoming train at the Powell Street station in San Francisco.

Anyone with tips on this latest case is urged to call 510-464-7011.
