Two Teens Killed in Changwon Motel Stabbings as Suspect Falls to His Death

Investigators are reviewing survivor testimony plus CCTV to assess whether the attack followed his knife purchase after learning the girl he liked had a boyfriend.

Overview

  • Police say a man in his 20s attacked teenagers in a Changwon motel, killing two and critically injuring one before he was found outside after a fall and later died.
  • Officers report the suspect checked in alone around mid‑afternoon, a 112 call came just after 5 p.m., and he leaped from a third‑floor window when police knocked.
  • Authorities confirm two middle school students died and one boy remains in critical condition, with another girl at the scene uninjured.
  • Investigators say the man bought a knife shortly before the incident and are testing five phones as they examine whether the crime was planned.
