The 17-year-old was having a meal on the floor when she was attacked with a butcher knife Sunday. Officials say they aren’t yet ruling out hate crime charges.
A man accused of stabbing a transgender 17-year-old girl with a butcher knife at Miami International Airport on Sunday was arrested and charged with attempted murder, police said.
Alexander Love, 29, was charged with first-degree attempted murder with a deadly weapon and attempted premeditated murder, according to an arrest report from the Miami-Dade Police Department.
Officers responded to Terminal J around 11:30 p.m. after reports of a stabbing, officials said in a news release. The victim was eating a meal while sitting on the floor when, officials say, Love attacked her without provocation, stabbing her about 18 times in her face, head, arms, shoulders, neck and legs before he tried to throw her over a safety retaining glass, officials said.
Are you claiming that there are metal detectors and agents at every single entrance at every airport you’ve been in?
Are you confused as to what a terminal is?
Maybe I should have started all this by saying I’m not an airport expert. I’m a dude who has flown on planes before.
I’ve always understood the terminal to be the waiting area that the plane pulls up too—in other words, the journey terminates at the terminal gate. Yes, I have only ever seen that area assessable after you’ve passed security—at least it’s been that way post 9/11.
If there is some nuance here where a terminal includes some parts outside of security, just say that. The tone I perceive in your post seems to be trying to make me look like a fool, and I don’t appreciate it.
