A man has been arrested and is facing multiple charges after stabbing several people in “unprovoked attacks” in downtown Las Vegas.
According to an arrest report, the three incidents happened on Thursday, June 20, between 8:55 p.m. and 9:40 p.m.
The first incident happened on a bus near 101 E. Bonneville Avenue.
Police interviewed a man who said he and his wife are visiting from California. He said they got on the bus and were heading from downtown back to Circus Circus. When they sat down, they were facing the back of the bus and saw a man, later identified as Devinski Tunggadewa, who was “acting erratic.”
He told police they were on the bus for about five minutes before Tunggadewa lunged at him and stabbed him about 25 times. He told police that he “fell to the ground and went limp” and “felt he was going to die as his body went numb.”
The report states his wife also told police that Tunggadewa was “talking to himself and being belligerent and aggressive for no reason.” She said it appeared he was talking to himself and that at one point her husband made eye contact with him. That’s when Tunggadewa allegedly said said “you mother****ers making eye contact with me, I’ll **** you up.”
