CHICAGO — A 22-year-old man has been charged with four counts of first-degree murder in a frenzied stabbing and beating rampage that left four people dead in a matter of minutes in a northern Illinois city, authorities said Thursday.
Three people remained hospitalized Thursday, officials said. The other four were treated and released, Rockford Police Chief Carla Redd said. Rockford police responded first to a home on Holmes Street, where they found the bodies of Jacob Schupbach and his mother, Romona. Both appeared to have been stabbed, Hanley said.
A witness said he heard a commotion and saw a man beating Larson on the grass near his home, Hanley said. The witness dialed 911 as the attacker walked toward his locked front door. The attacker retrieved a knife from a black pickup and stabbed Larson before driving over him twice and running away.Around that time, police began receiving 911 calls about an attack on nearby Cleveland Avenue.
