State Dept. staffer with knife shot to death after four women and dog stabbed: report
An employee of the U.S. State Department was reportedly shot to death by a Virginia state trooper after four women and a dog were stabbed.
According to the Virginia State Police, the trooper arrived at the scene of a crash on I-495 on Sunday to find Jared Llamado, 32, holding a knife. The trooper also said that four women and a dog had suffered stab wounds.
A State Department spokesperson told WTOP that Llamado was employed as a foreign service officer.
"We are aware of the tragic incident that involved a Foreign Service Officer and occurred on Sunday, March 1, in Fairfax County, Virginia. We extend our deepest condolences to all those affected by this tragedy," the department said in a statement.
Llamado and one of the stabbing victims, 39-year-old Michelle Adams, died of their wounds, police said. The dog was also reportedly killed.
Three of the women were said to be recovering from serious knife wounds.
Llamado's LinkedIn page indicated that he had worked at the State Department in a technology role for about 1.5 years.
Police did not believe that the incident, which followed a traffic accident, was related to terrorism.
