- (030220) I came home late one night and found police tape up around the entry stations with a pool of blood and then vomit. This was the article the next morning from the Washington Post:
2 Teenagers Stabbed Near Silver Spring Metro Station
Friday, February 21, 2003; Page B02
Two stabbings outside the Silver Spring Metro station during yesterday's evening rush drew gasps of horror from commuters, but left police with empty notebooks after dozens of witnesses walked away and did not help investigators, police said.
"There were a lot of people there when this happened. If, upon reflection, any of these witnesses would like to provide information, we can use it," said Lucille Baur, spokeswoman for Montgomery County police.
Just before 7 p.m., a group of teenagers got off the northbound train in Silver Spring and began fighting. Outside the Metro station at a bus turnaround area, one drew a blade and slashed the arm of one teenager, and then stabbed the leg of another, police said.
The injured 17- and 18-year-olds, both males, ran inside the station for help, leaving blood near the information kiosk. They were taken to a hospital, where the teenager with the arm injury was treated and released. The teenager stabbed in the leg was hospitalized overnight.
The victims knew the suspect, said police, who did not release any names.
