BC Airbnb host arrested after alleged knife attack on 2 female guests at Vancouver rental

A Vancouver man has been charged with aggravated assault after an alleged attack on two young women who’d rented his Airbnb suite.

“I don’t know what happened with him and these specific two young ladies,” said witness and neighbour Saad Mustafa. “But he flipped on them in a very, very violent way.

“It (was) horrifying. There was blood everywhere.”

It was a terrifying wake-up call for Mustafa, who said he saw his now-former neighbour allegedly turn on his Airbnb guests. Around 3 a.m. on May 27, he said he heard frantic female screams and a man yelling.

“He was pushing the girl against the wall, and I heard banging against the wall,” Mustafa recalled. “He was saying, ‘Why did you push my cat?’”

His gut instinct told him to get up and have a look. Kristen Robinson reports on what the neighbour found and what happened after the suspect was arrested.
