EL PASO, Texas — The man who police say randomly stabbed a child while she was at a McDonald’s in El Paso has an extensive criminal history.
Officers from the Northeast Regional Command responded to a stabbing call at the McDonald’s located at 9461 Dyer on Tuesday.
The five- year old little girl was playing inside the McDonald’s “Play Place” when a man walked up and stabbed her several times.
Officers were able to trace the suspect to the nearby Super Lodge motel and place him under arrest.
25-year old Isaac Dorfman, was charged with Injury to a Child and booked into the El Paso County Detention Facility under a $500,000 bond.
KVIA reported: Dorfman has had at least 18 different criminal cases brought against him since 2011.
His most recent arrest came last October on a charge of aggravated burglary. He was scheduled for an April 20 trial in that case.
Dorfman was sentenced to a year in jail in 2015 after pleading guilty in up to a half-dozen car burglaries.
Other charges over the years have included instances of alleged drug possession, as well as home burglary, driving without a license, harassment of a public official and a probation violation.
Some of those court cases brought against Dorfman were dismissed, records showed, however the detail of the reasons for those dismissals were not immediately available. It appeared he was frequently represented by public defenders.
Police told ABC-7 that Dorfman grew up in El Paso, having attending Delta Academy and Irvin High School but it wasn’t immediately know if he had graduated from either school.
The child underwent surgery at University Medical Center and listed in stable condition.
