The attack reportedly took place in a university office.

Students said that they heard screams and saw a woman covered in blood on the fifth floor of the building.

"I just heard the screams. Some faculty members went to the room and wanted to figure out what happened. Then another guy called the police and said, 'Somebody is stabbing. There's blood everywhere,'" Suiyi Jiang, a Rutgers Business School junior, told the student newspaper.
