Stabbing suspect Bradford James Gille was subdued within minutes with the help of bystanders, authorities said.

By the time an employee in the checkout area yelled about a man with a knife, it was too late. Nearly a dozen people had been stabbed at the busy Walmart in Traverse City, a tourist town on the shore of Lake Michigan,

The man was captured in three minutes thanks to "citizen involvement," Grand Traverse County Sheriff Michael D. Shea said.
