The 41-year-old woman was walking to her car when the suspect – police say 21-year-old Vanessa Delgado – stabbed her and stole her Nissan Rogue.

Neighbors told ABC7 the victim is a teacher and had just started her car to warm it up when the attack occurred.

The 41-year-old was stabbed in the chest and bicep. She was taken to hospital in critical condition.

The victim ran across the street to ask for help and rang her neighbor’s doorbell.

The neighbor did not want to be recorded on camera, but told ABC7 her doorbell camera captured most of the three-minute attack.

“He rings the doorbell and just says, ‘Call the police, I’ve been robbed.’ Then she goes to my neighbor and on the camera she can be heard screaming as she is being stabbed,” the neighbor said.

Minutes after driving away in the Nissan, the suspect struck a car parked a few blocks away at 5100 South Mulligan Avenue.

A 30-year-old man heard the accident and approached the SUV to try to help, but the suspect also stabbed him.

He was stabbed in the back. He was taken to hospital and everything seems to be fine.

Witnesses say it is a father who was taking his 2-year-old child to nursery.

“She jumped out of the car and followed him. “I think she also tried to take his vehicle while he was trying to put the baby in it and go to work,” the witness said.

The man and a neighbor who called 911 detained the attacker until police arrived.

The man’s child did not suffer any injuries.

Delgado was arrested at the scene and taken to the hospital with minor injuries from the crash.

Delgado is accused of attempted murder, aggravated battery and vehicle hijacking.
