"I'm still sitting and grappling with the weight of realizing that it was kind of a life-or-death moment," said Julia Martell, who witnessed the stabbing, which wounded 11 people.

A nonprofit group called the SALT Coalition – an acronym for Spiritual Activists Leading Together – has organized an interfaith prayer vigil for those affected by Saturday’s extreme violence at a Walmart store in the up-north Michigan town.

Medical officials reported positive recovery signs for the eleven people wounded in a Michigan Walmart stabbing spree, while questions remain about the suspect.
