Two "unprovoked" stabbings were reported in separate Massachusetts towns on Saturday, and police arrested a suspect they say was involved in both.
Braintree Police Department Chief Timothy Cohoon told Fox News Digital the first incident was reported at an AMC theater in Braintree at around 6 p.m. The suspect, whose identity has not been released, reportedly approached four young girls inside the movie theater without paying for a ticket.
"Without saying anything and without any warning, he suddenly attacked and stabbed the four young females," the police department's press release said. "The attack appeared to be unprovoked."
The victims, between the ages of 9 and 17, sustained non-life-threatening injuries. They were taken to Boston-area hospitals for treatment.

Police said the suspect ran out of the movie theater and drove away in a black vehicle. Shortly after the first attack, a stabbing involving a black vehicle was reported in Plymouth. Authorities identified the vehicle by using surveillance footage.
"Using various investigative techniques, the officers were able to see that the suspect was no longer in the area," the release added. "There was also video footage that allowed authorities to capture a license plate."
