The suspect accused of fatally stabbing a 66-year-old Atlanta woman aboard a public transit train has been arrested.

Footage has emerged of the arrest of the man who randomly stabbed a woman to death on a train in Atlanta.

The knife used is laying on the ground and appears to be a small pocket knife. Not sure why so many women are getting targeted in Atlanta 😢pic.twitter.com/Thn1fayTgo

"MARTA condemned the attack, saying, “This appears to be a senseless act of violence"
