1. Police Arrest Man Suspected Of Stabbing 11 In Albuquerque

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Police in Albuquerque arrested a man suspected of stabbing 11 people as he rode a bicycle around the city over the weekend, leaving two victims critically injured, authorities said.

The suspect was identified as Tobais Gutierrez, a 42-year-old man with a criminal history that includes federal felony offenses that range from burglary to battery and possession of a controlled substance.

He was booked into jail on charges of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, police in New Mexico's largest city said in a statement Monday.

The stabbings appeared to have been committed at random over the course of three hours and most happened along Central Avenue, one of the city's main thoroughfares, said police spokesman Gilbert Gallegos.
