Massachusetts authorities have identified the knife-wielding madman who attacked six people in a Saturday stabbing spree as Jared Ravizza.


Ravizza is accused of wounding four girls in a Braintree, Massachusetts movie theater before attacking two others at a McDonald’s in Plymouth.


His name was first reported by Boston 25 News, which cited a law enforcement source.


Ravizza allegedly started his bloody spree at about 6 p.m. Saturday inside the AMC Braintree 10, when he walked into a theater without paying and silently stabbed the four young girls, the Braintree cops said.All four were under 17, with the youngest being only 9 years old.


A movie theater concession worker described the suspect as wearing “an oversized trench coat, sunglasses, and a long blonde wig,” according to CBS Boston.


The girls were rushed to Boston-area hospitals and treated for non-life-threatening injuries.


Ravizza then fled in an SUV and drove 30 miles to Plymouth, Massachusetts, where he’s believed to have stabbed a 21-year-old woman and a 29-year-old man inside the fast-food joint.


The victims were also treated at a hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.


Ravizza then led the cops on a car chase before he crashed in Sandwich, Mass.


Cops arrested him, then brought him to the hospital for treatment.


Ravizza may also be linked to a murder investigation in Deep River, Connecticut.


Connecticut State Police issued an alert earlier on Saturday for the suspect, describing him as “armed and dangerous” with a 10-inch knife, CBS Boston reported.
