Villagers and Police stood petrified while watching the suspect displaying a wide array of karate chop, not allowing anyone to come close to him. Ultimately the Police had to fire several shots at his foot to overpower him. Police said that the suspect had entered the deceased's house around 5.00 am while the husband was away. According to Police, the 29-year-old youth who had returned home after receiving treatment at Angoda mental hospital several weeks ago was running a farm before his conditioned worsened. It is said that suspect had not taken the prescribed medicine.
"karate chops"? - yeesh! Not to mention since he was a mental patient, the title should be fool goes nuts and kills woman |Cain|
Must be in a TOTALLY different time zone. It's exactly 12:00 AM here. Well.. I guess you can't blame him. Maybe he was just "Testing his skills?" :woo:
Well this is selling the news. If he was not a MA dude he would have done her in with a knife or something else. Regargs Kerling
Pretty sad...........at the same time pretty good shot placement, his foot Maybe the police their should think about a bean bag gun, or just shoot him all together, and save their tax dollars.....oh wait he's mental, probably just go back to the institution to be released at a later date.
Why use bullets at all? They could have just truncheoned the guy all at once. Are their police forces so inept they could not even take care of one guy on a rampage? Especially with no hostage? Don't they have anti-riot personnel or equipment? Geez!
So we're all pretty much in agreement that the mere fact that he did karate is irrelevant? Good. My karma's pretty much shot after last night. I do NOT think this is an issue for people who do karate or for combat sportspeople. This is a wider social issue for people like the police and government.
You're really trying hard to catch up with yoda's post count arn't you. They cops should fo swarmmed him with stun guns.
You are trying to catch up with my post count by pointing out the post whoring everywhere are'nt you? |Cain|
