"Seattle detectives are investigating a Tuesday morning stabbing where one naked man tried to stab another. According to the Seattle Police Department, at 8:11 AM, a 911 caller reported a disturbance 
in an apartment building in the 400 block of Terry Avenue....multiple callers reported two naked men
running westbound on Jefferson Street from Terry Avenue. One of the men
was bleeding significantly, and the other appeared to be chasing him
with scissors. The victim ran to the emergency room entrance of
Harborview Medical Center and was treated for multiple stab wounds.
The
suspect was found less than a block away with a severe cut to his neck.
Officers administered first aid. Seattle Fire Department Medics
responded and transported the man to HMC in stable condition. Though the
circumstances leading up to the stabbing are still under investigation
and the suspects have not yet been identified, public nudity is a
regular occurrence in the area’s homeless and drug addicted population." PM

"A 37-year-old military vet has been busted in the terrifying, caught-on-camera hatchet attack
on an ATM customer in Lower Manhattan — and is also suspected in two
other incidents involving strangers earlier this month, law-enforcement
sources said Wednesday.
Garcia of Yonkers was charged with attempted murder
and assault in the bloody violence that took place late Sunday
afternoon inside a Chase bank in the Financial District, the NYPD said.
Disturbing new surveillance video shows the moment a 51-year-old man was brutally attacked by a hatchet-wielding maniac while at a Lower Manhattan ATM.
The footage, obtained by The Post on Tuesday, shows the victim at one
of the ATMs inside a Chase Bank vestibule on Broadway near Beaver
Street in the Financial District shortly before 5:30 p.m. Sunday when
his attacker walks in, removes a hatchet from a dark bag, sneaks up
behind him and begins slashing him.
The frightened and bloodied victim tries to fend off the brutal
assault, falling to the floor several times as he futilely attempts to
grab his crazed assailant’s weapon, the footage shows.
When the unidentified suspect is finished beating his victim, he
smashes the screens of the cash-dispensing machines before walking away —
and leaving the hatchet and his backpack behind, according to police." MichaelSavage.com

"The true face of the Taliban: police chief who fought the
insurgents is handcuffed, blindfolded and forced to kneel before being
brutally executed in a hail of bullets.
A regional police chief who fought the Taliban has been executed in cold blood by the jihadist group, according to reports.
Shocking video footage being circulated on the internet apparently
shows the kneeling handcuffed and blindfolded figure of General Haji
Mullah Achakzai, chief of Badghis Province near Herat, being gunned down
in a hail of bullets.The grey-haired commander was reported to have been arrested by the
Taliban after they seized the area, near the Turkmenistan border, in
their lightning advance late last week.
After a content warning, Ms Nawa added: ‘Haji Mullah, Police
chief of Badghis province executed by #Taliban. This is their public
amnesty!’
The Taliban had promised that there would be no acts of vengeance
against former enemies following their takeover of Afghanistan on
Saturday.
Gen. Achakzai, in his early 60s, was an avowed enemy of the Taliban
and known as a seasoned fighter in the long-running conflict between the
group and the forces of the Afghan civil government, which fell at the
weekend." DailyMail

"The body of high-end escort, Nicole Flanagan was stuffed into a barrel and was found by police in Ridgefield Park, New Jersey.
Aerial video shot by CBS 2 News
shows cops surrounding the large plastic container after a horrendous
odor led residents to discover the barrel turned coffin on a sidewalk
in Ridgefield Park last week.
At least five officers could be seen inspecting the barrel that was
later determined to hold the remains of 42-year-old high-end escort
Nicole Flanagan.Footage has emerged of the gruesome moment police found the naked body of an escort stuffed into a 55-gallon barrel that was dumped in New Jersey.
Flanagan, who was identified after cops ran her prints, was shown on the surveillance video entering 95 Wall St. in the Financial District the night before her body was discovered, police sources told the Post.
She came into the building with a man that sources say has since been identified by investigators.
The video captured the man later moving the barrel out of the
high-end apartment building on a luggage rack and loading it onto a
U-Haul at around 10:45 p.m. that same night.
A security guard at the building questioned the drum when it was brought in, but the man said he was moving, sources said.
A resident in the building said police have been focusing on an apartment on the 22nd floor that was occupied by two men in their mid-20s. The neighbor said the two men had moved in during the pandemic." NYP
