Denver police arrested a suspect Sunday night in connection with a string of weekend stabbings on or near the 16th Street Mall that killed two people and sent two others to the hospital. Three of the stabbings, including one fatal stabbing, occurred between 5 and 6 p.m. Saturday along the 16th Street Mall, according to the Denver Police Department. A fourth person was fatally stabbed around 10 p.m. Sunday in the 1600 block of Market Street, where the street intersects with the pedestrian mall, police said. Police took the suspect into custody following that attack. He has not yet been publicly identified, but investigators said on social media that they believe he is connected to all four of the weekend stabbings. Denver officers responded to the first stabbing in the 700 block of 16th Street, near California Street, around 5:20 p.m. Saturday, according to a news release from the police department. Paramedics took an unidentified woman to the hospital, where she later died from her injuries. Two men were also injured Saturday in stabbings that happened along the mall — one near Tremont Street around 5:12 p.m. and one near Lawrence Street around 5:54 p.m., police said.
