Four girls are recovering after they were attacked at a Massachusetts movie theater.
Police say a man entered the theater around six p.m. on Saturday and "without saying anything and without any warning," he suddenly attacked and stabbed four young girls.
The victims, aged nine to 17, sustained non-life-threatening injuries and were taken to the hospital for treatment.
Officers told reporters the attack "appeared to be unprovoked" and the suspect fled the scene immediately after.
They believe the same suspect may be connected to several ongoing investigations, including a murder in Connecticut.
