The man was captured on surveillance video hopping over the reception desk and plunging a knife into two employees — a male and a female, both 24, on March 12, 2022, after being denied entry to a film showing, police said.

He was on the run for three days before being arrested in Philadelphia, where he was also being sought on an arson charge after allegedly setting fire to his room at the Best Western in Center City, police said at the time.
Cabana was caught sleeping at a terminal in the Philadelphia Bus Station and told officers who took him into custody that he “had a bad day,” NBC 4 reports.
It is not immediately clear if he had entered a plea or retained an attorney who could speak on his behalf.
