The officers chased down the assailant and arrested him. Authorities said he had no criminal history except for some “minor run-ins with police.”
“This is a horrible incident. The officers on the scene and the Miami Police Department are appalled at this display of unprovoked violence,” said Miami Police Chief Manny Morales.
