Animal.The man believed to have slit the throat of 18-year-old Nia Wilson at an Oakland BART station on Sunday night was arrested without incident Monday night.
Police apprehended 27-year-old John Lee Cowell, a paroled felon, on a BART train nearly 24 hours after he allegedly attacked sisters Nia and Letifah Wilson in a vicious stabbing at the MacArthur station in Oakland. An anonymous caller had tipped police that Cowell had boarded an Antioch-bound train, reports the San Francisco Gate.
Stabbing at BART Station Leaves 1 Black Woman Dead, Another Injured; Police Identify Suspect

“I looked back, and he was wiping off his knife and stood at the stairs and just looked — and from there on, I was just caring for my sister. I was in shock. ... I didn’t know I was cut because I was paying more attention to my sister. But he just stood there, like it was nothing.”
Protesters rallied to pay tribute to Nia and to demand justice for her senseless, violent death. The racial dynamic of the killing—Cowell, a young white man, selecting two young black women to prey upon—wasn’t missed by many.
Singer and Oakland native Kehlani spoke passionately about the attack on social media, criticizing BART officials for not acting sooner to catch Cowell and referring to him as a “white supremacist.”
I'm shook by this and its affecting me a ton.
