EVERETT — A man forced his way into a residence Monday morning, before allegedly stabbing multiple people in Everett, deputies said.

Just after 9 a.m. Monday, South County deputies responded to a report of a burglary in the 1200 block of 112th Street Southwest, according to a Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office social media post.

A 20-year-old man had allegedly forced himself into a townhouse after one occupant slightly opened the door, said Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office Courtney O’Keefe. Upon entry, he allegedly stabbed a 45-year-old and an 18-year-old woman in the upper torso numerous times.

Another occupant, a 22-year-old woman, put the suspect in a chokehold and fought him off until deputies arrived, O’Keefe said.

First responders transported two of the three victims to Providence Regional Medical Center Everett in critical condition, the post said.

As of Monday night, the victims are in critical but stable condition, O’Keefe said.

The suspect knew the victims through a friend, O’Keefe said.

Correction: A previous version of this story said the suspect was 24 years old and forced himself into the home after not getting a response. He is 20 and allegedly forced himself in after the door was slightly opened.
