UPDATE: Escaped psychiatric hospital patient found, police say

EWING -- The man who escaped from Trenton Psychiatric Hospital Saturday was charged with stabbing a shopper at a Bed Bath & Beyond in Monmouth County in 2013, officials said.

Tyrik Haynes, 22, was still at large Sunday afternoon, officials said.

Ewing police alerted the public about Haynes' escape late Saturday with a post on the township's website that said he should be considered "dangerous."

Haynes was last spotted on the grounds of the hospital, the alert added. Anyone who spots him should call 911, Ewing police said.

Middletown police confirmed Sunday that Haynes is the suspect they arrested in January 2013 on charges he tried to kill a woman inside the Bed Bath & Beyond on Route 35 in Middletown.

Haynes, then 19, and from Middletown, allegedly stabbed a 29-year-old Keansburg woman a dozen times as she pushed a child in a stroller, critically injuring her.

He was indicted by the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office as Tarik Haynes on first-degree attempted murder and related weapon charges. He lived on Chance Drive in Middletown at the time, records show.

The official disposition of the case was not known Sunday.

The December before the store attack, Haynes was charged with setting fire to a cat on Christmas.

Middletown police said Sunday they did their due diligence and went to prior Haynes addresses in the township after learing he had escaped, but they had no information or belie that he's in Middletown Sunday.

Haynes is a 6-foot tall black male, who weighs about 265 pounds and last seen wearing a t-shirt and grey sweat pants, the police department's alert said.

A spokeswoman for the state Department of Human Services, which runs the hospital, said again Sunday the department cannot elaborate on the issue or confirm the patient's identity due to medical privacy laws.

The Human Services police department is also looking for the person, the spokeswoman said.
