Man charged in Brooklyn Center bus stabbing that left victim ‘likely’ permanently paralyzed

A Minneapolis man is charged after he allegedly stabbed a man on a city bus in Brooklyn Center, leaving doctors to say the victim will likely be permanently paralyzed.

According to a criminal complaint, Metro Transit officers responded on June 17 to a bus fight near Brooklyn Road and 65th Avenue North. Officers later identified 27-year-old Darshawn Turner as the man accused of stabbing another man in the side of the head.

At the scene, officers found a man stabbed in his left temple and bleeding “profusely,” according to court records. Hospital records said doctors performed a craniotomy because of a blood clot in his brain and said he would likely suffer permanent paralysis on at least half his body.
