Yesterday, the Tallahassee Police Department responded to the 2700 Block of Lake Henrietta Street in reference to a stabbing. Upon arrival, the victim was bleeding and stated that her husband, Johnny Edward Robinson, was the person who stabbed her. Robinson fled the scene before officers arrived and eluded capture during the initial investigation. Robinson's wife was holding her infant child during the attack. The child was not injured, but the victim was hospitalized and treated for non-life threatening wounds. Robinson is listed as a fugitive from the Department of Corrections and has an extensive history of violence.
