Double Stabbing at Roxbury Crossing--Updated

Update: The DA's Office just sent out confirmation. They say both stabbings happened on the outbound platform and that the stabbing victims are expected to survive.

Roxbury Crossing was shut down at about 6:00 pm tonight due to a double stabbing. From the Globe:

One victim was stabbed on the train platform; the other was stabbed in the station's parking lot. The incident happened at around 5:45, said MBTA spokeswoman Lydia Rivera.

One victim was transported by ambulance to Brigham and Women’s Hospital. The other was taken by his or her parents to Children’s Hospital Boston, Rivera said.

Last year at about this time, Back Bay station saw an outbreak of incidents. Not a nice anniversary to remember. Last October, a man stabbed two people at Park Street Station.
