A woman was shopping inside a Maryland grocery store when a man approached her and stabbed her with a syringe full of semen.
The assailant is 51-year-old Thomas Byron Stemen. He was arrested by Police after the woman reported she was assaulted while grocery shopping.
The incident was caught on surveillance video.
It shows Stemen pretending to “bump” into the woman as she was returning a shopping cart. Right at that moment, he jabbed her with an object that he pulled from his pocket.
She said the attack felt like a bee sting.
The victim — identified by WBAL-TV as Katie Peters — initially thought she was burned by a cigarette butt, the station reported.
“It felt like a bee sting didn’t it?” Stemen allegedly told Peters after the attack, the outlet reported.
Cops said they received an anonymous tip on Tuesday which named the 51-year-old as the attacker.
Investigators then found the syringe in the driver’s side door of his car, WBAL-TV reported.
Stemen was arrested and charged with first- and second-degree assault and reckless endangerment. A judge ordered he be held without bail.
Peters told the station on Wednesday that she felt safer with Stemen behind bars.
Cops said that additional testing and investigations are underway — believing that there may be additional victims. [New York Post [2]
This man is likely a “serial semen stabber” who has done this to other women.

But this one here is just a special kind of demented.
