A 23-year-old Louisiana Tech University student is in police custody for allegedly stabbing four people this morning as they were leaving classes at the university’s Lambright Sports & Wellness Center.
Jacoby Johnson, of Rayville, was apprehended without incident as he was heading south past West Alabama Avenue behind the J.C. Love baseball field, Louisiana Tech Police Chief Randal Hermes said.
The attack was random, Hermes said. The victims were attacked as they walked down the sidewalk on the east side of the intramural center near the outdoor swimming pool.
Johnson had reportedly been inside the building and ran out, encountering the victims in his path.
“It sounds like he ran up behind them and surprised them,” Hermes said.
As of late morning, Johnson had not been officially charged.
One of the victims was airlifted from the scene and taken to a Shreveport hospital. Two were taken to Northern Louisiana Medical Center where one was in surgery around midmorning. The fourth refused treatment, officials said.
At least three of victims are non-students from Ruston.
The investigation is continuing.
