While returning to their hotel after celebrating Sherrie Snader's upcoming wedding, Sherrie and her sister were randomly stabbed by some asshat on a bicycle. Thankfully, both sisters are both alive and expected to recover—both had collapsed lungs from the stabbing. The criminal is in custody.
The state of the world today, dammit. What was that old curse? May you live in interesting times . . .

Sherrie Snader's bachelorette party turned tragic early Sunday when she and her sister were stabbed.
The sisters were part of a group from Cincinnati who were celebrating the pending nuptials in Louisville, Kentucky.
Police say Sherrie, 27 and her sister Melissa, 21, were returning to their hotel when the suspect, identified as Kalief Cummings, confronted them, WHAS TV reports.
An altercation ensued, and Cummings allegedly stabbed both sisters before riding off on a bicycle, according to the Louisville Courier-Journal.
The sisters managed to escape and ran to a safe place where they called police. They both suffered collapsed lungs from the stabbing and were treated at an area hospital, according to Newser.com.
Officers arrested Cummings, 45, a few hours later using surveillance video and the victims' descriptions, according to Lex18. He has been charged with two counts of assault.
His motive is unclear.

The sisters are expected to fully recover, but the Aug. 29 wedding may have to be rescheduled as they are both expected to be in the hospital through the end of the week.
