“fear someone did it on purpose “

It might have been just an accident or perhaps a simple misunderstanding?

It was really dark and I thought it was my kitchen knife block. It could happen to anybody.

Or a one-armed man?

Maybe Dr. Richard Kimble can help?

The resident should step up and pull the knife out rather than wait on someone else to do it.
