A mentally disturbed man stabbed and then decapitated his seat mate aboard a Greyhound bus while terrified passengers watched in horror.
A 40-year old man was taken into custody at the scene about 3 hours after the incident aboard a Greyhound bus near the city of Edmonton, Alberta in Canada.
Passengers say the man apparently didn’t know his victim and there was no exchange of words before the man began stabbing the 19-year-old passenger. According to witnesses, the victim was asleep with earphones on when the attack began.
The driver quickly stopped the bus when he heard the blood curdling screams. The driver and other passengers fled the bus as the man stood over the victim stabbing him “40 to 50 times”. The driver and two other passengers bravely re-boarded the bus to see what was happening. The man had the body on the floor of the bus and was methodically and calmly sawing the victim’s head off with a large hunting knife.
The three men exited the bus when the man advanced towards them. The lunatic went back to the body and continued cutting. He then returned to the front of the bus to display the victim’s head to the passengers outside. The driver and the two male passengers blocked the door with a crowbar to prevent the deranged man from escaping. READ MORE…

SICK
OMG! That is so sad, that 19 yr. old life was tooken bye a crazy azz man. I don’t get it how come they let these crazy people out into the world where they able to harm innocent people. They need to give him the death penalty. Im so f’in mad @ this ****. That 19 yr. old could have easliy been one of my family members.
Shocking
Oh my goodness. That is so scary. Stories like this make me want to drive myself whenever I need to travel. It is amazing how people just snap for no reason. I bet it is another case of a mentally handicapped person told that they are fine and allowed to leave the institution.
This crime is truly senseless … and since Canada does not believe in the Death Penalty .. he’ll be up there for life in the pokey…
The family is left behind to wonder why … why did he choose their son who was simply listening to music trying to get to his destination … God Bless his family.
That’s just sick! Why didn’t he just cut his own head off!
Just as surely as there are angels that walk among us there is also evil that walks among us. Senseless is the first thought that comes to mind. There is nothing the deceased young man could have done to prevent this horrible and sick ending of his life. God please provide some comfort to this family that is surely heart broken right now.
This story pissed me the hell off. All those people did nothing while this man was stabbed to death and decapitated. My bad, they didn’t do nothing. They ran off the bus and locked the victim in with the crazy man. Cowards. Cooincidently, I watched 25 Celebrity Near Death Experiences last night and when actress Teresa Saldana was attacked with a knife by a stalker ONE man disarmed him and saved her life. You mean to tell me the other 32 passangers and bus driver could do nothing to help this boy, but run? A$$holes. The whole lot of them.
WTF?!?!? Man tell me this isht is not real! WTF is wrong with people? You hav eto be one sick f.uck to do something like that. I feel like I just read a script to some horror movie. Sandra, please take this story down - it’s too much!
WOW!! First of all there was a bus fool of people. I know he’s swinging and all that but they all just RAN OUT?!?!?!? WTF? This **** right here pisses me the **** off because had they had the damned balls to do something they might have saved him. Even so, don’t let him cut the man’s head off. His family has too see him. Motherf*ckers…I would say excuse my language but I’m too mad for words.
This WORLD has become so desensitized to violence that we don’t care about our fellow human beings. If you see something going down where your fellow man is being hurt and you do nothing, YOU ARE WRONG. Karma is a b*tch.
*full
See…thats why I wouldn’t ride Greyhound if it was free!! I had a bad experience on Greyhound when I was in College going home one year from Atlanta to Detroit. While I was sleeping I kept feeling something moving around under my butt…and when I woke up I found the man in the seat next next to me had his hand under me and was rubbing on my butt! I grabbed his hand, twisted it and dug my nails in his hand as hard as I could, stood up, and started yelling at him. It was about 2am, everyone was asleep, the bus was pitch black, and we were in the middle of nowhere. I told the bus driver that I needed to move my seat immediately. It was such a horrible experience!!
The bus stations are full of degenerates and they let any nut -bucket ride the bus with barely no id. On our way, we actually stopped by one stop in North Georgia where all newly released inmates from some boot camp up there go when they get out, and about 10 of them got on the bu…it was sooo crazy!! Never again!!!
DAMN I am at a lost for words right now.
This story has me so upset I’m shaking. So sad! Poor kid!
OMG!!! That is so flucking terrifying. I am literally sitting here shaking. What in the hell happened, dayum I cant imagine the pain that boys family is going through. He showed them the dayum head, I am too through. I would probably need therapy after seeing some sh!t like that.
This is going to ruin my entire day.
I read this story yesterday & it totally sickened me. I mean I have a brother that’s 19 & to think about something like that happening to him makes me want to throw up. I constantly take the bus from New York to Maryland to visit my family and even though it’s a pretty short ride, it’s always this little voice that warns me that anybody can get on this bus with any type of weapon. They definitely need to have a security check on buses. According to reports this guy was 6′0 & over 200 lbs. It probably would’ve took 6 men or more to subdue is crazy ass but I agree with ya’ll they should’ve tried to take his big psycho ass down. I agree w/u bk2atl, evil definitely walks among us.
wow…. I have to get on the greyhound today to!
I’ll be praying for your safe traveling mercy @ MZN … let the traveling angles travel the roads to protect and keep the bus drivers and passengers safe for all hurt harmn and dangers in Jesus Name. Amen
(my g-momma would pray for us like that when we traveled)
MZN Says:
wow…. I have to get on the greyhound today to!
~~~~wow. keep a bottle of mace in your right pocket and a pocket knife in the other…and don’t rest at all. i would suggest even sitting way in the front.~~~~
Flawless victory
Greyhound just lost about a milli customers on that one
Thanks Kymystry and brownsugg4u!
WOW……..
So senseless, his poor family……i’m feeling it for them….smh
Well that’s how we do nowadays. its about a hundred people on the bus and nobody tried to pick up a fire extinguisher and smash that ish on that crazy ass head. Everybody ran out like lil ****es. The same thing with that soulja girl chicks that was in that old ladies face. All these young n**as watching and someone video taping it and no one helps. That is now the American way Everyone for self! but then wanna complain what others do.
How many of you would have help or run out?????
@ dblaq … knowing me I would have been paralized with fear … like the white chick that falls down in the horror movies….
That is so crazy!!! I thought the same thing, all those people on the bus and they all ran away?! I understand being frozen for a sec, but after that?? They need to have the same mentality that they do on planes these days after 911. Try that ish on a plane and see what happens, the crew AND the passengers will beat your azz…if they even THINK you’re up to something. Terrorism comes in many forms, and they aren’t all Middle Eastern folks!!
i would be traumatized for life if i was on that bus
