South Korea supermarket stabbing leaves 8 injured, suspect arrested

BREAKING: Eight people injured in a knife attack at a supermarket in Incheon, South Korea, including a woman who suffered cardiac arrest, with a man in his 60s arrested.

Eight people have been stabbed at a supermarket in Incheon, South Korea.

It happened this morning in a busy shopping area of the city, just west of Seoul. Among the injured is a woman who went into cardiac arrest at the scene. Emergency crews were there fast, and you can see them here, working on a victim right outside the store.

Police have arrested a man in his sixties. Beyond that, the facts are still thin. No word yet on a motive, no word on his connection to the store or to the people he attacked. Korean police are expected to say more in the coming hours.

For now, eight people are in hospital, one of them fighting for her life, after what should have been an ordinary morning at the shops.
