A man attacked three women at CTA Red Line stations in the South Loop Wednesday.
The man, 29, was standing near the CTA Cermak-Chinatown platform when he took out a sharp object and stabbed a woman, 22, in the face about 10:30 a.m., according to Chicago police.
The man tried to stab another woman, 20, but missed and then punched her in the face, police said.
He fled and, less than 15 minutes later, approached a woman, 23, at the CTA Roosevelt station and hit her with a construction cone, police said.
The 22-year-old and the 23-year-old went to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where they were both listed in good condition, police said.
The attacker was taken into custody and brought to Jackson Park Hospital for a mental health evaluation, according to police.
