The man was later identified as Pedro Guadarrama, age 22.

First responders treated the victim at the scene while waiting for an ambulance, and were notified that the suspect was still in the area, Bertagna said. He was located nearby and taken into custody. A knife presumed to have been used in the attack was found in his possession, according to the O.C. Register.
