up again Tommy ran and I'm like this
against the wall and he just kept so the
came in here came in here Adam was
cornered in here I don't know how Adam
got out of here but he did yeah that he
in the hallway he started stabbing Adam
again and I'm like this the patient
looked
he was going to hit me more like in the
sides at least on top of him like this
investigators must now find out the
suspect's identity and determine why he
brutally attacked Adam did y all get the
guy that actually did it yeah he's a
white guy right I don't know I didn't
see him so when we came up my office I
heard I got real loud Stomps and they
never who who is this kid he's a nurse
practitioner he's a provider Mr Brown is
yes both of but who's the kid that was
with him I have no clue he's a patient
we deal with pych patients meanwhile an
officer asked Jeffrey a critical
question that will bring them one step
closer to witnessing the full horror of
the attack you guys don't have video in
here do you in the
hallway how many times did he stab him
well at least we saw at least I saw
three three yeah okay and they were all
neck the suspect is identified as
24-year-old Jason hollz a patient
suffering from schizophrenia causing
paranoia and hallucinations he was at
the iic for two injections of antis
psychotic medications used to treat the
disorder while the details highlighted
Jason's Condition Nothing explained why
his attacks seemed entirely focused on
Adam as officer vosco examines the
evidence he notices something unusual
about the weapon that may hint at
premeditation here's a Knife by the way
dude this is a big
knife someone said they were in the
office with him yeah ohud what the is
this
so he's got it taped
up okay so this wasn't something he
grabs for the moment this is something
that he brought with them okay meanwhile
another officer wonders why more safety
measures weren't put into place I don't
know how you guys do stuff but like in
the future especially after this what I
just saw I would just maybe like check
with security see if they could start
checking people entering the door you
would think with the pro probation
department downstairs Federal Federal
why detector but he maybe check like in
a long like down further like check
whoever the security company is for a
long there's absolutely and and and
honestly after this incident I don't
think they would argue with
you people you guys get
p i just talk to she said shut the whole
office down nobody oh yeah you guys
can't operate after this that
do right no I no it's it's this is very
traumatizing the signature health
facility implemented routine weapons
detection screening for the safety of
staff and other patients following the
attack downstairs the security guard
confirms what officers have been waiting
to hear about the surveillance footage

man camera footage he be here in a
minute cuz all I know is I heard you
know I heard he called me on the radio
I'm trying to like this I'm trying to
get up there like the elevator moving
slow cuz like I was in a basement for
now employees continue to struggle with
the emotional aftermath something needs
to happen for I to come back to work I
would have like even if they have the
security officer just patting people
down or something like that because that
shouldn't he shouldn't never been able
to come in here with a I just and people
have done it before like that one lady
brought gun in
here yeah people have to realize like
it's one thing when they take their Mas
but like if people have a mental episode
you know how crazy they get we see it
all the
time I know just like the client like
the look on his face yeah he would um he
walked by when he walked in my office
out by the
ground next to the the door and he looks
at me but quickly his attention averted
back to Adam it's like he had one
mission mission in mine and even in the
hallway he had another opportunity just
to then SEC right by me and security
coming up here and getting save yourself
I don't know about you but I was
thinking this was going to end a
different way yeah I
know ask where this DN suspect I got
security guard doing the statement he
said when he came up here D had knife in
his he pulled his gun out dropped the
knife he dropped it oh he dropped it
while officers on scene continue to
