ATHENS, GREECE -- A 31-year-old man killed his girlfriend on the Greek island of Santorini on Sunday, beheaded her, then fled in a patrol car, a local official said.... Initially, Arvanitis roamed the village of Vourvoulos exhibiting Karkali's head, neighbors said. Townspeople said they locked themselves in their homes and called the police. When a policeman tried to handcuff him, the suspect knifed the officer and flung the woman's head into a patrol car, Roussos said. The policeman was only slightly injured, police said. Arvanitis then made off in a second patrol car and ran over the motorcycle before he was caught, Roussos said. One of the two doctors suffered multiple fractures, Roussos said. The other was uninjured.
Perhaps I'm overreacting, but I'm sensing some anger management issues here. If beheading his girlfriend's dog wasn't enough of a clue, I'd have to think that beheading the woman and parading around the island holding her severed head ought to have clued in even the most disinterested of observers. Throw in the Greek police and their Keystone Kops pursuit of Arvanitis...and, well, it's all fun and games until someone gets hurts, eh?
You know, if you feel the need to behead your girlfriend's dog...and, ultimately, your girlfriend...you might want to give some serious consideration to seeking professional help. NOW. Before you buy that membership at eHarmony and begin looking for another girlfriend. Unless, of course, you're really into leaving a trail of headless bodies in your wake....
(Oh, yeah...in a completely unrelated beheading story, this is why you might want to think about sitting near the driver the next time your on a Greyhound bus in the middle of nowhere in Manitoba. And if the guy sitting next to you is holding a machete and complaining about being hungry, you might want to find another seat. Man, and I thought stuff like this only happened in Texas....)
