Teen Arrested After Fatal Stabbing in Czech Mall

A knife attack took place on Thursday at a shopping center in Hradec Kralove, Czech Republic. Two women were killed. Police arrested a 16-year-old Czech national shortly after the attack, about a half-mile from the scene. A knife was found nearby. Authorities state there is no indication of a "terror attack." The attacker apparently chose victims at random. The city is about 60 miles east of Prague. Prime Minister Petr Fiala expressed condolences to the victims' families. "What has happened in Hradec Kralove today is an absolutely incomprehensible and horrible act," said Fiala. Initial reports mentioned injuries, but police later confirmed both women died.
