WOBURN, MASS. (WHDH) - Woburn police are turning to the public for help in their search for a man accused of stabbing a man and a pregnant woman on Aug. 4, officials said.
Officers responding to a reported disturbance on Washington Street shortly before 11 p.m. found the victims suffering from stab and slash wounds to their head and face, according to a joint statement issued by Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan and Woburn Chief of Police Robert Rufo.
A preliminary investigation suggests that 24-year-old Tyler Olivier arrived at the home where he resides and found the man and woman outside the home where they rent an apartment.
During the encounter, investigators say Olivier became angry and allegedly entered the home to retrieve a knife before returning outside and stabbing and slashing the victims.
He then fled the scene in a White Jeep Summit. Officers were able to locate the knife at the scene.
The Jeep was later found in Connecticut but Olivier’s whereabouts are still unknown.
He is described as being about 6 feet 1 inch tall and weighing between 190 and 230 pounds. He has black hair, brown eyes, and a muscular build. He has known ties to Florida, California, and Connecticut and may have fled the area.
Olivier has been charged with two counts of assault to murder, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon on a pregnant victim, and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Woburn Police at 781-933-1212 and should not attempt to approach him.
An investigation into the incident remains ongoing at this time.
