DENVER, CO – Investigators say the attack on Denver’s fire chief near the department’s headquarters appears to have been random and unprovoked.
Chief Eric Tade was in an unmarked SUV Tuesday afternoon when a woman jumped in and stabbed him in the hand and leg. Tade was hospitalized with minor injuries.
42-year-old Marlene Rodriguez was arrested for aggravated assault.
Detectives do not believe Tade was targeted because of his job.
