Student Kills Intruder with Samurai Sword

[Trainwreck2100]

A Johns Hopkins University student armed with a samurai sword killed a man who broke into the garage of his off-campus residence early Tuesday, a Baltimore police spokesman said.

According to preliminary reports, a resident of the 300 block of E. University Parkway called police about a suspicious person, department spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said. An off-duty officer responded about 1:20 a.m. to the area with university security, according to Guglielmi. They heard shouts and screams from a neighboring house and found the suspected burglar suffering from a nearly severed hand and lacerations to his upper body, he said.

The suspect was pronounced dead at the scene.

The student told police that he heard a commotion in the house and went downstairs armed with a samurai sword, Guglielmi said. He saw the side door to the garage had been pried open and found a man inside, who lunged at the student.

Detectives were still interviewing the student and his three roommates Tuesday morning, Guglielmi said. Burglars had already stolen two laptops and a Sony PlayStation from the student's home Monday, according to Guglielmi.

Dennis O'Shea, a spokesman for Johns Hopkins, said all four residents of the house are undergraduate students at the university.

The suspected burglar, whose name was not released pending notification of next of kin, had prior convictions for breaking and entering and had just been released Saturday from a Baltimore County facility, Guglielmi said.

The bigger story is this:


Burglars had already stolen two laptops and a Sony PlayStation from the student's home Monday, according to Guglielmi.

Don't they know it's 2009 and there's things better than a PlayStation. Like a Xbox 360 or a PlayStation 3? C'mon, it's time to move on. :lol

[balli]

Awesome.
They heard shouts and screams from a neighboring house and found the suspected burglar suffering from a nearly severed hand.
That's what you get for burgling.

[LnGrrrR]

My troop is getting orders to the Baltimore area... he was talking about getting a smaurai sword now to protect his home. :lol

[Soul_Patch]

Damn...this kid took "getting head" to a whole new level.


EDIT: Damn i reread and thought hand = head....ruined my insanely funny one liner...


oh well...

[I. Hustle]

Last time anyone burgles that house.

[desflood]

*Sigh*

I love a story with a happy ending.

[Cry Havoc]

Sucks to be the student. Now he has to live with the fact that he killed someone. Even in self-defense, it's not an easy thing to deal with.

[phxspurfan]

For great justice!

[ATRAIN]

I have wanted a Samurai Sword since pulp fiction so now I really want one.

He doesn't seem that depressed about it.

Yeah, no matter how you slice it, taking someone's life isn't something someone does everyday.

[JoeChalupa]

I don't think the victim was cut out to be a burglar.

Heath Ledger has them. I think I've seen him offer a SpursTalk discount.

Oh, Joe. Quit being such a cut up. This is serious.

[I. Hustle]

In the end all the burgler needed was a hand.

[JoeChalupa]

That student is a cut above most others.

[JoeChalupa]

For him, the pen was not mightier than the sword.

[I. Hustle]

Something obviously happened in the burglers life that cut him deeply

[LOL texans]

The force was strong with him.

[JoeChalupa]

That student wasn't about to waste time talkin' and just cut to the chase.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

I'm not surprised that things ended this way. Being robbed once already probably made the student jumpier than a katana hot tin roof.

[angel_luv]

In the end, the theif gave the student a hand with his belongings.

Boo! I Hustle beat me.

[JoeChalupa]

It is sad though that someone's life was cut short due to their stupidity.

[I. Hustle]

He just wasn't cut out for that line of work.

[mrsmaalox]

Any way you slice it, it's a bad situation.

[angel_luv]

In all seriousness, it is a sad story. I am sorry for the thief's family.

[TDMVPDPOY]

is he lookin for a student?

[Strike]

Obviously the burglar chose the right line of work. Maybe he should have tried stand up comedy. Who knows? He might have been a real cut-up.

[BlackSwordsMan]

maybe he needed a hand to get started

[I. Hustle]

In all seriousness it's a sad story. I am sorry for the thiefs family. That is one branch of their family tree that was chopped off too soon.

[Shaolin-Style]

Pity for his family, but no pity for him. Was a career criminal who was caught and served time and got out and started up again. He was trash, by killing him, whether right or wrong, the student has saved who knows how many people from so much pain and suffering from this parasite on society.

I didn't find a cutting, stabbing, hand, or sword reference. I would have expected more from someone with a name like Shaolin Style.

I made a joke post too. Before my serious one- if you would notice.

give this a hand for being so nice

[JoeChalupa]

Well, the student got his point across quite clearly.

[ShoogarBear]

I don't think the victim was cut out to be a burglar.

Yeah, once he realized that, he was pretty hacked off about it.

[TwAnKiEs]

This student is a cut above the chest... I mean rest!

[I. Hustle]

At least he wasn't asking for any handouts

[CosmicCowboy]

And I thought I was a badass in college for cutting class!

[JoeChalupa]

No matter what life has in store for him....he can hack it.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

I'd like to give that student a hand.





I hear there's one nearby.

[I. Hustle]

After the cops got there he was still pretty pumped. I mean you could cut the tension with a knife.

[Bender]

..jumpier than a katana hot tin roof.
:lol - good one

[Fpoonsie]

Hoe. Lee. Shit. :lmao:lmao:lmao

[Bender]

Heath's website was promoted in this thread... has he made an appearance yet?

[manufan10]

:lmao

This thread delivers.

Let's all give it a hand.

[The Reckoning]

i wonder if the student will face legal or academic repercussions from killing the robber (in a very unusual, though badass, style.) anyway you slice it, this is a complicated situation.

edit: somebody beat me to it lol

Either way, you took too long to cut to the chase.

[manufan10]

At least he took a stab at it.

[I. Hustle]

See if I was backstabber I would have said


Hey! I think I've ran into that guy before.

[Trainwreck2100]

He's a John Hopkins student so he must be pretty sharp

[DarkReign]

True, not that I would know anything about it (obviously). But one has to do what one has to do.

I guess you have to know what katana is to get that one.

It's a type of sword. I agree that one sliced through the competition.

I'm anti-violence, but even I'd have to call this story bad ass if this song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3s5rPZQLK4) happened to be playing at the time.

[ginobili's bald spot]

Cut it out guys. You killed it.

Stop being such a kill joy. You always have a hand in ruining the fun.

I said nvm, but SFIE's joke needs to be explained I guess.

The saying is "...cat on a hot tin roof."

Say "katana" out loud.

[LnGrrrR]

Yeesh DR... let him guess words if he doesn't know them...

[Chingo Bling]

He left his car radio on and it was on Kid Cudi.

[TacoCabanaFajitas]

A lot of holes in the student's story if you ask me.

So does he face no charges arigoto go to jail for killing a man?

[mrsmaalox]

Yeesh DR... let him guess words if he doesn't know them...

Haha that reminds me of the SNL Jeopardy skit where the topic is "S Words" but Sean Connery picks "swords for $100, Alex" :lol

[Chingo Bling]

Was he Asian? I'm yust taking a stab in the dark.

I'd have no problem with it. It wouldn't affect me one bit to know I killed someone like that in self defense.
