Random stabbing spree in Philadelphia leaves 1 dead, 2 hurt

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A man has been charged in a stabbing rampage along a Philadelphia street in which police said he randomly attacked people at a cellphone store and inside a car and then killed a man at a mechanic shop.

Police said the man entered a Cricket Wireless store in west Philadelphia and stabbed a man in the chest who was paying his bill, then climbed into a car and stabbed the driver in each hand before heading to a nearby mechanic and stabbing 30-year-old Nathan Ackison in the chest as he was watching repairs on his car.

Police said their initial investigation indicated an argument or disturbance broke out involving "numerous dirt bikes and quads chasing each other" followed by several gunshots.
