Nia Wilson, an 18-year-old from California, has been identified as the victim of a fatal double-stabbing attack at a BART station in Oakland. Her sister, who is 20 years old, was transported to the hospital. The incident occurred just before 10:00 p.m. local time, according to reports. Wilson had attended Oakland High.
The suspect in the attack, who has been described as a white male, remains at large. Police have been reviewing security cameras and searching for further evidence on the train and platform, according to BART police chief Carlos Rojas.
“If you’re in the Oakland/Berkeley area be alert of your surroundings. A white male 5’9 with spiked hair on the side stabbed 2 sisters on Bart at MacArthur station the police are yet to catch him,” one Twitter user wrote.
The attack was reportedly unprovoked and the suspect remains at large.
From the San Francisco Chronicle:
Ebony Monroe, a cousin of the victims, described Wilson as a “beautiful, sweet person” who loved her cousins, fashion and doing makeup. Monroe said Wilson had a boyfriend who drowned in a lake two years ago, and that she was celebrating his birthday on Sunday.“She needs her justice … she was just an innocent kid, and she didn’t deserve this.” Monroe said. “And he did this for no reason.”Monroe said a witness described the suspect as coming “out of nowhere.”
