9 People are dead as reported at the time of report

BOISE, Idaho (CNN) -- Residents of a Boise, Idaho apartment community are in shock after a man with a knife stabbed several people at a child's birthday party Saturday night.


The attack has the community on edge.

"Our victims are some of the newest members of our community. They're victims from their past homes who have fled violence from Syria, Iraq, and Ethiopia," said Bill Bones, Boise police chief.

Police responded to a call about a man with a knife Saturday evening, and officers were on scene within 5 minutes. They took the suspect into custody within minutes.

"Nine members of our community have been stabbed and laid injured. People were scattered across the apartment complex, both within the apartments themselves, lying in the street, and in the walkways," Bones said.

At least four individuals suffered life threatening injuries.

Police identified the suspect as 30 year old Timmy Kinner of Los Angeles, California.

"Kinner attacked, targeting the children initially. A 3 year old girl whose birthday it was was one of those seriously injured, including two 4 year olds, a 6 year old, an 8 year old, and a 12 year old, along with three adults who tried to intercede to prevent the loss of lives of the children," Bones said.
