The 11 individuals injured in a random stabbing incident at a Walmart in Michigan are exhibiting encouraging signs of recovery, according to medical officials on Sunday. Simultaneously, there are still unanswered questions regarding the identity of the 42-year-old suspect who has been apprehended by the authorities.

According to Munson Healthcare—the largest healthcare provider in northern Michigan—seven of the victims are in fair condition, while four remain in serious condition. Information about their ages has not been disclosed at this time.

“Over the past 12 hours, we’ve seen encouraging signs of recovery among our patients,” the hospital said in an update. 

The statement praised the hospital’s team of physicians, surgeons, nurses, clinicians and support staff who have focused on treating the victims.

Tiffany DeFell, a 36-year-old resident of Honor, approximately 25 miles from Traverse City, recounted to the Associated Press her experience witnessing the chaotic scene from the Walmart parking lot.

“It was really scary. Me and my sister were just freaking out,” she said. “This is something you see out of the movies. It’s not what you expect to see where you’re living.”

FBI agents have responded to provide support, Deputy Director Dan Bongino wrote on social media.

In a statement to Fox News Digital, Walmart spokesperson Joe Pennington said that “violence like this is unacceptable.”

“Our thoughts are with those who were injured and we’re thankful for the swift action of first responders,” Pennington wrote in a statement. “We’ll continue working closely with law enforcement during their investigation.”
