A Seattle man, identified as Roland Jerome Lee, faces multiple counts of first-degree assault after allegedly carrying out a stabbing spree in the Chinatown-International District on Nov. 8, according to court filings from the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office.

A 37-year-old Seattle man was charged Thursday with five counts of assault in the random stabbings of five people in broad daylight last week, according to prosecutors. Roland Jerome Lee is accused of stabbing five people as they stood on the sidewalk in a roughly four-block area in Seattle’s Chinatown-International District.

King County prosecutors charged a 37-year-old Federal Way man with five assault counts. He remains a suspect in four other knife attacks last week.

Charging documents note that Lee has nine previous felony convictions within the past 10 years, including multiple attempts to steal a motor vehicle, possession of stolen property, attempted burglary, and attempted robbery. He also has 30 misdemeanor convictions, including theft, trespassing, drug paraphernalia, assault, and vehicle prowling.

The man arrested in multiple stabbings in the Chinatown-International District appeared in court Saturday for his first appearance hearing.
