Surveillance footage shows Ogbodiegwu attacking from behind, continuing to stab even as Wimsatt fell, then kneeling on his chest and sawing at his neck before fleeing. The suspect was identified after being shown a photo at a McDonald’s — where he was seen earlier that day — and initially denied being at the park. He bizarrely mentioned having a twin brother but couldn’t recall his name. Police found a bloody knife and stained sweatpants in his trash. Ogbodiegwu is now held on a $1 million bail while a mental health evaluation is ordered — a horrifying case that underscores how senseless violence can erupt anywhere.
