SPOKANE, WA — A knife-wielding man who attacked a woman and fatally stabbed another individual was shot and killed by an armed citizen in what police describe as a clear case of self-defense.

The violence erupted just after 5:15 p.m. on May 13 at an apartment complex in the 3300 block of East 11th Avenue. Witnesses described a rapidly unfolding and terrifying scene, with the suspect brandishing a knife and at least one gunshot heard during the incident.

According to the Spokane Police Department, the suspect began his rampage by attacking a woman inside the complex. Another tenant quickly intervened, pulling her into an apartment to separate her from the armed attacker. Remarkably, she survived the ordeal without injury.

The suspect then encountered a man near a stairwell and fatally stabbed him before continuing through the complex. As he moved through the area, he came upon another man who was out walking his dog. Thankfully, this man was armed. Seeing the knife-wielding suspect running toward him, he drew his firearm and shot the attacker, killing him at the scene.

Detectives say the shooting appears to be a lawful act of self-defense. The armed citizen remained on scene and attempted to provide aid to the stabbing victim until emergency responders arrived.

This incident is a sobering reminder of how quickly everyday life can be disrupted by violence. One moment you’re walking your dog, and the next you’re facing a knife-wielding attacker who has just taken someone’s life. This is exactly why many responsibly choose to carry concealed.

The armed citizen’s actions didn’t end after the threat was neutralized. His attempt to assist the stabbing victim highlights another critical aspect of preparedness: trauma response. Knowing how to control bleeding, having access to a trauma kit, and carrying tools like tourniquets can make a life-or-death difference in the minutes before EMS arrives. For those who carry, consider complementing your firearm training with medical training—it could save a life, maybe even your own.
