A 20-year-old Chicago woman is facing felony charges after allegedly stabbing and badly injuring three people last month, including a teenage girl.

Keerica Chandler was arrested on Tuesday in the 1800 block of West Monroe Street on the Near West Side, according to the CPD.

Chandler was recognized as the person who stabbed three people on January 29 in the 800 block of South Kilbourn Avenue in West Garfield Park.

The victims were a 16-year-old girl, a 43-year-old woman, and a 19-year-old man. According to police, all three sustained serious injuries.

Chandler is charged with three felony counts of aggravated battery involving the use of a deadly weapon and one felony count of aggravated battery resulting in grave bodily harm.
