A Philadelphia man is facing an attempted murder charge after authorities say he stabbed a gym employee multiple times at a Planet Fitness he had been previously banned from, leaving the victim fighting for his life.
Davier Massey, 28, was arrested Thursday shortly after the attack at the gym in the Wyncote section of Cheltenham Township, the local police department said.
Officers responded around 12:30 p.m. to reports of a stabbing at the Planet Fitness and found a male employee suffering from multiple stab wounds, police said. He was rushed to a trauma center with life-threatening injuries. No updates on his current condition were immediately provided.
Investigators said the attack followed an altercation between the employee and Massey, who had previously been banned from the gym.

Another told the station that “all the employees are nice” and “uplifting.”
“It’s a little shocking for something to happen right here,” he said.
