In a well-known art gallery
a witness to stabbing was mistaken for as a suspect.
A woman was stabbed in the
arm and neck by a woman with a utility knife at Art Basel Miami Beach in
Florida, on Friday.
According to the Miami
Herald, the artist was at her exhibit at the time, she heard a scuffle and
later saw a woman being wheeled away by paramedics, but people she spoke to in
the aftermath told her they initially thought the stabbing had been part of the
show.
A guy walked up to me and said, ‘I thought I
saw a performance, and I thought it was fake blood, but it was real blood.”
The lady arrested by the
police who happen to witness the incident was release and the real culprit was
apprehended.
Detail's of Zhao's arrest
sheet were tweeted by WPLG reporter Liane Morejon which claimed she shouted.
"I had to kill her and
two more! I had to watch her bleed!" as she was patted down by police
officers.
She said a fellow artist at
the gallery showed her a picture taken on a mobile phone of a woman dressed in
white who was covered in blood.
Art Basel representatives
said the two women were visitors to the gallery rather than exhibitors.
A spokeswoman for Art
Basel, Sara Fitzmaurice, said in a statement: “The attack was an isolated
incident that was immediately secured. The suspect was apprehended by police
who were at the scene within seconds of the incident.
