Canadians Must Be Watching Too Much American Television.

This is some crazy shit. As I was getting my morning coffee in the breakroom this morning, the television was on in the background. I heard talk of decapitation, and of course turned around to hear what was going on.
A witness was telling his account of a fellow Greyhound passenger being repeatedly stabbed and then decapitated by the person sitting next to him. The bus was travelling through Manitoba overnight.

RCMP would not confirm the reports, but stated that a "major incident" took place around 9 p.m. Wednesday evening on the bus, as it traveled down the Trans-Canada Highway, heading to Winnipeg from Edmonton.

A man has been taken into custody, but police remained tight-lipped about the case.

The passenger interviewed, told CNN that the attacker had been sitting beside the victim, who was asleep, with his headphones on.

Caton said he heard a "blood-curdling scream" as the man held a "Rambo hunting knife" above the victim.

"He must have stabbed him 50 times or 60 times," said the eye witness.

Can you imagine traveling along, listening to your mp3 player and waking up to that?
In Canada?
Seriously horrifying.
