the thief had no honor and was dispached quickly by the samurai
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 su ious 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:
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.Burglars had already stolen two laptops and a Sony PlayStation from the student's home Monday, according to Guglielmi.![]()
Awesome.That's what you get for burgling.They heard shouts and screams from a neighboring house and found the suspected burglar suffering from a nearly severed hand.
My troop is getting orders to the Baltimore area... he was talking about getting a smaurai sword now to protect his home.![]()
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...
Last time anyone burgles that house.
*Sigh*
I love a story with a happy ending.
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.
For great justice!
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.
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.
In the end all the burgler needed was a hand.
That student is a cut above most others.
For him, the pen was not mightier than the sword.
Something obviously happened in the burglers life that cut him deeply
