SEATTLE -- "A birthday party turned to chaos Sunday morning when a woman was stabbed to death by her ex-husband in front of dozens of people, and then the man was shot and killed by a man who witnessed the stabbing, Seattle police said.
Police say it all happened just before 1:30 a.m. at the VFW Post 6599 and Ladies Auxiliary Building on Martin Luther King Way South in South Seattle.
Witnesses told police there were group of about 40-50 people there celebrating a birthday when a man walked in looking for his 33-year-old ex-wife, who had a restraining order against him.
They say the man found his ex, and then grabbed her and started stabbing her. Other people tried to hit him with chairs and tables to stop him, but they say the man kept stabbing the woman -- even cutting other people in the process -- until someone else pulled out a gun and shot him.
Medics tried to help the victim, but she had already died. Her ex-husband was taken to Harborview Medical Center where he later died.
Homicide detectives questioned the shooter and then released him. The shooter apparently did not know the man he shot or the woman who was stabbed, but police say he had a license to carry a gun.
Detectives took the gun into custody as matter of procedure."
Well thats the end of that gun. By the time they're through fiddle frigging with it...that's of course if it doesn't "disappear" from a property room...the guy probably wouldn't want the thing back.
Good news is someone with some stones finally drew his sidearm and wasted the low life animal. Bad news is he waited too long. Cannot emphasize enough how women should take matters into their own hands and arm themselves.
