US President Donald Trump on Sunday condemned the stabbing of Iryna Zarutska , who escaped the Russia-Ukraine war to have a peaceful life in America.
A reporter asked Trump, "Iryna Zarutska was stabbed multiple times on a Charlotte subway. Have you seen this video, and do you have a reaction to it?"
Trump, who was unaware of the incident, asked where the incident took place. The reporter briefed him on the matter, to which Trump said, "Horrible."
"No, I haven't heard. When did this happen?" Trump questioned the reporter.
The reporter told him that the incident took place in August, and the chilling video had emerged now.
Trump then promised to look into the incident by tomorrow morning.
"I'll know all about it by tomorrow morning," he said.
A haunting video of the incident is doing rounds on social media, where the 23-year-old Ukrainian woman, Iryna Zarutska, was seen travelling in a light rail in Charlotte. Zarutka was fiddling with her phone when Decarlos Brown Jr , 35, pulled out a pocket knife and stabbed her multiple times, footage shared by police shows.
After brutally attacking her, Decarlos was seen wandering on the Lynx Blue train. Blood was spattering across the floor as he was carrying the weapon with him.
A few of the passengers noticed the blood on the floor. The suspect took off his hoodie and waited to exit the train.
