The suspect, now detained, had recently arrived at the mission on Saturday evening. As the individual prepared to check into the 150-person facility for a second night, a confrontation ensued.

“Something … set him off, and he evidently had a knife in his bag,” Union Gospel Mission’s Executive Director Craig Smith told NBC News.

“The whole incident is on video,” he said, adding that all footage of the attack was being shared with police.
