A 21-year-old college student is facing attempted murder charges after police say he stabbed two fellow classmates while rehearsing a scene from a movie.

A 21-year-old college student in Hartford, Connecticut, is facing attempted murder charges after police say he stabbed two fellow classmates while rehearsing a scene from a movie as a class assignment.

University of Hartford student Jake Wascher was "acting out" a scene from a film when he allegedly began stabbing both victims at an on-campus apartment on Sunday afternoon, according to the Hartford Police Department. Wascher then fled the apartment on foot and surrendered to a patrol officer without incident about two hours later near a wooded area, several hundred yards southeast of the university's main campus, police said.

The two victims sustained serious stab wounds in their chests and backs, officials said. They were taken to a local hospital, where one was listed in serious but stable condition on Sunday. The other remained in critical condition in the hospital's intensive care unit after undergoing surgery, police said.

Wascher, of San Diego, California, was being held on $1 million bail on Sunday night. He was expected to be arraigned Monday in Hartford Superior Court on two counts each of first-degree assault and criminal attempt to commit murder. It's unclear whether he has retained an attorney.

That's what I do when I pretend I'm Beyoncé.

I’ll kill you you cocaroach

abc No. The stabbing did NOT happen while acting out the scene. It happened when they took a brake to dicuss the scene & to get water in the kitchen, where another student was cooking. The perp picked up the knife the cook was using & headed back towards 1/

College student.. he’s about 35!!!!

No call for KNIFE CONTROL? Wierd cause they kill more people than those scary rifles yet no one cares? What?

Act out in jail ... Let's see now that brings back reality

Time's up for the white judge who gave 'one pass' to the white man who kidnapped, strangled, and masturbated on a non-white woman. privilege justice law

This guy's a STUDENT? Looks more like a psychopath!

That's a psycho.

He’s a method actor.

Now that's a hard working actor who takes rehearsals seriously. His penalty should be given out by his acting coach to perform a suicide scene.

I'm not sure about the 'surrendered without incident' as it appears he got roughed up. Which is fine by me.

Name of the movie: 'Oops, I Shouldn't Have Done That: Now I'm Going to Prison.'

He looks like he puts the 'meth' in 'method acting'

A College Student Was Allegedly Murdered After Getting In A Car She Thought Was Her Uber'We believe that she simply mistakenly got into this particular car thinking it was an Uber ride,' Columbia Police Department Chief Skip Holbrook said. She wasn’t allegedly murdered. She’s dead. Many of the areas around the university of SC are rife with crime; I wish the school would do more to inform the students of the dangers surrounding them. So her roommates left her behind at a random party? That’s pretty fucked up to do when going out as a group partying. Blood is just as much on their hands.

Georgia teachers suspended after allegedly mocking student's sexuality, teasing him about 'boyfriend'Hell these Teachers are so young now a days what you expect.. Why do we have teachers and public schools today? It is nothing more than overpriced Daycare. Regardless of your feelings about a persons sexuality, it is highly inappropriate for a Adult to harass a Child. Especially when that adult has authority over them. I agree with the parents, those teachers need to be fired, it's inexcusable.
