A man has been arrested in the western United States after allegedly stabbing a Muslim man multiple times inside a shopping mall, telling investigators he targeted the victim because of his religion and he "intends to kill Muslims", according to court records. Police said the attack, which took place on Monday at Valley Fair Mall in West Valley City in the state of Utah, appeared to have been motivated by religious hatred. In a court affidavit released on Tuesday, investigators said the suspect "targeted the victim because of the victim's religion" and warned that he posed "a substantial danger to the public if released based on his violent actions, ... ideologies and pre-planned mass casualty events".
