==============================
(CBS/AP) Updated 8/12/10 7:33 p.m. ET
A suspect in a string of 18 stabbings that terrorized people across three states and left five dead was arrested in front of startled passengers at an airport gate as he tried to board a plane for Israel, officials said Thursday.
A judge in Flint, Mich., where the attacks began in late May, signed a warrant Thursday charging Elias Abuelazam, 33, with assault with intent to murder in connection with a July 27 stabbing.
Antwione Marshall, 26, of Flint, the victim of that attack, told The Associated Press that the FBI visited him at 3 a.m. to show him a picture of the man arrested in Atlanta, and he identified him as the assailant.
Marshall said he was going into his apartment building when the assailant approached and asked for help fixing his car. He was stabbed twice when he opened the hood. Three of his organs were cut, and he has a long scar from his chest to his pelvic area.
Marshall said he wants to "retaliate" but "I'll let God handle it. Every time I look at my scar, I get angry."
In Michigan, Genesee County Prosecutor David Leyton said authorities still don't know the motive. Most victims were black, and police have said the attacks may have been racially motivated, though Leyton said there was no evidence of that.
---------------
Police had focused their hunt on Flint - where 14 stabbings took place - until Leesburg police reported three attacks. Authorities in Toledo, Ohio, say a stabbing in that city Saturday appears to be linked to the violent spree.
---------------
The attacks began in late spring and police said they usually followed a pattern: The suspect approached black men late at night on lonely urban roads and asked for directions or help with a broken-down car. Then, without warning, he pulled out a knife and struck. Then, he sped away, leaving them for dead.
The brazen nature and the frequency of the attacks - the assailant struck an average of about once every four days since the first stabbing in May - has terrified some of those in cities he's already targeted.
The youngest victim was 17; the oldest was 60. They ranged in size from 5-foot-4 inches and 120 pounds to 6-foot-1 and 190 pounds.
Authorities in Leesburg, a predominantly white city, believe the three victims there were chosen because they are black.
The Leesburg victims were a 15-year-old boy, stabbed near a gas station, a 67-year-old man attacked with a knife while sitting on the steps of an apartment building, and a man hit in the head with a hammer, reported CBS News correspondent Elaine Quijano. All survived.
"I believe his motivation is pure hatred," Leesburg Police Chief Joseph Price said at a Tuesday news conference in which he released a short video clip of the vehicle the suspect drove after attacking a 19-year-old man with a hammer. He said police also have footage of that attack but won't be releasing it.
LESSONS LEARNED:
1-Maintain situational awareness: "Where am I? Is this the best place to do what I have to do?"
2-Establish and maintain your Personal Comfort Zone and Sphere of Influence
3-Trust no one in a public space
4-Practice weapon preparedness
5-Attack the Attacker with combat-specific methods and weapons of choice and necessity
The above crimes and scenarios as well as their defenses could have been lifted straight out of
the Guided Chaos Combatives Manual, Kill The Enemy, Companion Part 1,
Military/Police Tactics, Knife Defense and Cane vs. Knife DVDs.
The last is especially important for the average person because a cane is completely legal
and exceptionally lethal if used properly (forget the popular "Cane-hooking" crap you see
all over the web if you want to live--and not have your attacker's laughter as your last memory).
