Authorities took a suspect into custody Friday at a Linda Vista trolley station, the morning after he allegedly attacked two people.

The arrest followed two attacks Thursday evening, according to OnScene.TV – a stabbing and attempted carjacking at another trolley stop, on Balboa Avenue.

The target of the carjacking fought back with a baseball bat, San Diego police told OnScene. The suspect then fled on foot.

Late Friday morning, security for the Metropolitan Transit System spotted the suspect, a man whose face was heavily blooded.

The suspect, OnScene reported, was armed with a kitchen knife and started to advance on the authorities when they used a Taser on him, causing him to fall to the ground.

He was taken into custody and transported to a local hospital for treatment.
