A man who was arrested in connection with the stabbings of multiple people at bar in San Francisco's Richmond District bar last month was released following an arraignment hearing, authorities said.

According to San Francisco police, five people were stabbed at a business on the 3900 block of Geary Boulevard shortly after 2 a.m. on Oct. 24. Four of the victims were taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, while a fifth victim was assessed by paramedics at the scene.

Investigators were able to identify a suspect and obtain an arrest warrant. The suspect, identified as 32-year-old Joncarlo Gutierrez of San Francisco, was arrested by plainclothes officers near Richland Avenue and Mission Street.

Gutierrez was taken to the San Francisco County Jail on the warrant, police said. 

District Attorney Brooke Jenkins' office said Gutierrez was charged with five counts of assault with a deadly weapon and two counts of mayhem. The criminal complaint also alleges Gutierrez inflicted great bodily injury on the victims.

Court documents said Gutierrez argued with a woman at the bar then headbutted her. When a security guard attempted to intervene, Gutierrez allegedly pulled out a boxcutter, slashing the woman and other patrons who tried to intervene. He allegedly fled the bar, leaving behind his driver's license and hat.

Gutierrez was arraigned on Wednesday, pleading not guilty to all charges and denying the allegations against him. While the DA's office moved to have him detained without bail citing a public safety risk, the court set bail at $50,000 and he is out of custody, prosecutors said Thursday.

Gutierrez is scheduled to appear in court for a preliminary hearing on Dec. 4, prosecutors said.
