A knife-wielding assailant was stopped by an armed citizen at a home in Madison, Wis., on Sept. 17, 2023.

Police responded to the scene of a large fight, after multiple callers noted that they heard gunfire. Upon arrival, officers found a critically injured 20-year-old man with gunshot wounds, as well as three stabbing victims. According to investigators, the 20-year-old attacked multiple people with a knife, and one of his stabbing victims was armed and defended himself.
