Police charged a suspect on Friday with murder over a stabbing, beheading and evisceration of a bus passenger returning home from a carnival in Western Canada.
According to Australia's news.com, "Vince Weiguang Li, 40, of Edmonton faces a charge of second-degree murder, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said. The victim was 22 years old, police said. Friends identified him as Tim McLean, a happy-go-lucky young man who was returning home to Winnipeg from a job as a carnival worker in Edmonton. "
34 passengers and the driver were jolted by "blood-curdling screams" and fled the bus, witness Garnet Caton told public broadcaster CBC. "He must have stabbed him 50 times or 60 times," said Caton. Passengers scrambled over one another, according to witnesses cited by Canada's Globe and Mail newspaper. When passengers returned to check on the victim, they saw the attacker "cutting the guy's head off and gutting him". "While we were watching ... he calmly walked up to the front (of the bus) with the head in his hand and the knife and just calmly stared at us and dropped the head right in front of us."
