Man in custody following stabbings at Massachusetts movie theater and at McDonald’s restaurant

BRAINTREE, Mass. (AP) — Police in Massachusetts say a man was taken into custody after six people, including four girls at a movie theater, were stabbed in separate attacks that may be connected. Police said a man came into the AMC Braintree 10 south of Boston on Saturday night and entered a theater without paying. The girls, ages 9 to 17, were inside. Police said the man suddenly attacked them without any warning before running away. A man and a woman were later found stabbed at a McDonald’s restaurant in Plymouth, about 27 miles south of Braintree. All six suffered injuries that were not life-threatening and were taken to hospitals. State police later caught up to the vehicle farther south in Sandwich. It didn’t stop and crashed.
