Arizona Man Stabbed Six Times on New Mexico Greyhound Bus

Jorge Quintanilla, an Arizona man, was seriously injured after being stabbed six times in the head, neck, and arm by another passenger, Ryan Kenny, on a Greyhound bus traveling through New Mexico. The attack was unprovoked and occurred between Lordsburg and Deming, with Kenny subsequently arrested and charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and attempted murder. Quintanilla was airlifted to a hospital in El Paso and is expected to recover, though the incident has left his family shaken. The attack drew comparisons to the fatal stabbing of Ukrainian immigrant Iryna Zarutska on a Charlotte light rail train, which led to the enactment of "Iryna's Law" reinstating the death penalty for certain violent crimes in North Carolina. Quintanilla and his family are seeking to identify a woman who helped save his life moments after the attack. Greyhound has stated it is cooperating with authorities and prioritizes passenger and employee safety.
