Employee's Face Slashed With Box Cutter

FREMONT, CA — A woman was slashed in the face with a box cutter earlier this month, outside a Fremont business.

The victim had to be transported to a medical facility for treatment of her injuries.

According to Fremont Police, the attack happened on March 6 outside a shipping store on Mowry Avenue.

Police say the suspect had been loitering near the business entrance and yelling at customers. Police say that he yelled at the victim, who was outside on her break. He then swung the box cutter at her, cutting her face.

Although the suspect fled before officers arrived, the victim spotted her attacker four days later near Capitol and Mount Vernon avenues. She called police, who responded and arrested the accused assailant.
