   Virginia authorities are not sure what prompted a 20-year-old   
   man to allegedly stab three people at random at a plasma   
   donation center during a Fourth of July cookout.   
      
   Jairique Shannon entered the Octapharma Plasma in Petersburg,   
   asked to used the restroom, and then began stabbing people with   
   a long knife, Commonwealth's Attorney Cheryl Wilson told The   
   Associated Press.   
      
   "There's no information that he had any grudge against anyone,   
   and at this point we don't have a motive," Wilson said.   
      
   Shannon is charged with three counts of malicious wounding and   
   is being held at the Riverside Regional Jail.   
      
   He'd donated plasma to the center at least once before, Wilson   
   said. The center was holding a "customer appreciation cookout"   
   to thank them for donating plasma at the time of the alleged   
   attack.   
      
   Two females and a male were taken to a Petersburg hospital. The   
   females were treated for unspecified injuries and released   
   Thursday. The male was transferred to another hospital and was   
   listed in critical condition.   
      
   Irene Banks told WWBT-TV that her daughter is the manager of the   
   plasma center and helped stopped Shannon.   
      
   “He was telling me how she is a hero, said Banks of what she was   
   told by police. "She took the man down, they said, my daughter   
   did."   
      
   Octapharma Plasma   
   on Friday   
   Octapharma Plasma is heartbroken over the violent incident that   
   occurred at our Petersburg, VA donation center on Thursday, July   
   4. Our sole focus remains on supporting those involved and   
   impacted in Thursday’s event. We are working with authorities at   
   this time to provide any help and information necessary. Out of   
   respect for our donors and employees affected, we will not be   
   providing further comment on the story’s developments. We want   
   to express our appreciation for the quick response from the   
   local Petersburg police department, as well as the overwhelming   
   outpouring of support from donors and employees across the   
   country.   
      
   Octapharma Plasma’s Petersburg donation center is closed to the   
   public at this time, and we will announce when the center re-   
   opens. Thank you for your patience and understanding.   
      
   In a Friday statement, the Charlotte, North Carolina-based   
   plasma center said its "sole focus remains on supporting those   
   involved and impacted in Thursday's event. We are working with   
   authorities at this time to provide any help and information   
   necessary."   
      
   Shannon also faces animal cruelty charges related to a police   
   search of his Petersburg home. He is expected to appear in court   
   Monday.
