A General Motors Co. employee was stabbed at the company's tech center in Warren, Mich., and was taken to the hospital on Wednesday, a company spokesman said.

The spokesman said the attacker was not an GM employee and that attacker is now in custody. He declined to release the names of either party.

According to a televised news report citing an interview with Warren Mayor Jim Fouts and city officials, the attacker was a female who went into a building on the campus and asked to speak to a female employee. When the employee came outside, the attacker stabbed her several times, the televised report said.

Mr. Fouts told Detroit-based WJBK television that the incident is considered isolated and likely the first of its kind at GM's tech center, which is one of the biggest businesses in Warren.
