The man was stabbed in the neck just before 9:30 p.m. at the intersection of 6th Street and Hennepin Avenue, according to Minneapolis police. He fled on foot and collapsed in front of Target Center before traffic control officers found him. EMS personnel took him to a hospital, where he was stabilized.
Officers tracked the suspect on surveillance footage before arresting him at the intersection of 5th Street and Hennepin Avenue.
He was booked into the Hennepin County jail on probable cause for first-degree assault. He remains in custody.
The department is still investigating the motive for the stabbing.
