Overview

• Andres Stathoulopoulos, 20, faces two hate crime counts and one count of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon for allegedly shouting racial slurs and stabbing a woman on July 8.
• Judge Antara Nath Rivera ordered him detained without bail at his first court appearance after finding that his actions were driven by racial hatred and citing a prior criminal history.
• Prosecutors say surveillance footage shows Stathoulopoulos crossing the street toward the victims and later walking away with a knife in hand.
• The female victim suffered a deep cut to her left wrist that required four stitches after Stathoulopoulos called her a “(expletive) lover,” according to the detention petition.
• He is next scheduled to appear before a judge on August 6 in Skokie to continue formal proceedings.
