The Armenian victim of a knife attack in northern Moscow on Wednesday
died of his wounds in a hospital early Thursday, police said.
Passers-by found the 20-year-old student at Moscow State Automobile
and Road Technical University lying beside Bolshaya Akademicheskaya
Ulitsa at about 9:20 p.m., Northern Administrative District police
spokeswoman Yekaterina Malyugina said.
"We have no idea who attacked, or why they attacked," Malyugina said.
"We are examining all possible motives."
She declined to give the victim's name, which Interfax reported as
Vladimir Karamzhyan, citing unidentified police sources.
She said the victim, who had been stabbed five times in the upper
torso, was attacked near his home, on Ulitsa Priorova, which runs
perpendicular to Bolshaya Akademicheskaya, and that surgeons at City
Hospital No. 50 had battled for hours Wednesday to save him.
Russian media sources provided differing accounts of the attack.
Interfax reported that five assailants aged 12 to 18 attacked
Karamzhyan as he was walking with a young woman past No. 20 Bolshaya
Akademicheskaya Ulitsa.
Regnum.ru reported that there were as many as 20 attackers.
The university could not be reached for comment Thursday.
