A  citizen with a gun stopped a knife wielding man as he began stabbing people  Thursday evening at the downtown Salt Lake City Smith's store.

  Espinoza says, the knife wielding man seriously injured two people. "There is  blood all over. One got stabbed in the stomach and got stabbed in the head and held his hands and got stabbed all over the  arms."
Then,  before the suspect could find another victim - a citizen with a gun stopped the  madness. "A guy pulled gun on him and told him to drop his weapon or he would  shoot him. So, he dropped his weapon and the people from Smith's grabbed  him."
