The man accused of stabbing two Asian women Tuesday evening in San Francisco was previously charged with assault with a deadly weapon in 2017, according to court records reviewed by The Chronicle.
A judge subsequently sent the man, Patrick Thompson, to a state hospital after finding he was not competent to face those charges.
The injuries sustained by the two women were believed to be life threatening at the time of attack.
“I was told the knife nicked her lung and ribcage. It was a really long knife,” Ms Fong’s grandson, Drew Eng, told ABC TV.
The alleged attacker was identified as 54-year-old Patrick Thompson, who was arrested at around 7pm local time on Tuesday, two hours after the attack. He has been booked under two counts of attempted murder and two counts of elder abuse.
Investigators say they are looking into the motivation behind the attack and have not ruled out the possibility of racial motivation.
