Authorities are hunting for a hefty woman slasher who stabbed a victim in broad daylight in the Vermont Square section of South Los Angeles before escaping in an older Ford SUV.
The stabbing was reported at 12:20 p.m. Tuesday in the area of Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Hobart Avenue, according to Officer Tony Im of the Los Angeles Police Department‘s Media Relations Section.
The victim — whose age, gender and condition were not immediately available — was taken to a hospital, Im said. That person’s condition was not made public.
The suspect, a black woman who is about 50 years old, was last seen headed south on Hobart in a white 2005 Ford SUV. She was described as 5-feet-2 inches tall, 180 pounds with black hair and brown eyes and wearing a pink shirt, black pants and black print glasses.
