A woman shot with a crossbow and a priest stabbed in a rectory shake a small Nebraska town
Two brutal killings in four months have left 1,100 residents in a tiny corner of eastern Nebraska reeling.
They stabbed the priest in his what?
It's funny how small towns offer a sense of security, even if it isn't really warranted.
We moved to a small town about 15 years ago. It was right after a fairly brutal murder of a local teen. And it was just a few years after the murder of a local man by his roommate. That one didn't get as much coverage, but he murdered him with an ashtray in a fit of anger. Locals were still happy to tell us that no one locks their doors.
Since then, we've had two double murders, a SWAT situation where four neighboring police forces came to town to help local police kill the guy barricaded inside his home, and a sad story of a young man who went missing in December and was found murdered the next spring. There was also the time a local man randomly attacked two out-of-town women with a baseball bat and was stabbed with a screwdriver by a neighbor. And I feel like I'm forgetting one more.
Even after all of that, police had to call everyone in town and tell them to lock their damn doors after a rash of burglaries. The thieves were just walking around trying doors at random and being very successful.
Granted - my town is unlike the one in the article because it seems like the attacks in Nebraska were both random. That would be unnerving. What I do find funny (in the WTF sense) is that every time my town has another murder, double murder, or riot, the people seem to forget all the ones that came before. For a town of 3000 people our per capita murder rate must be pretty high, but everyone feels totally safe.
You should move. Like, I know that’s unhelpful, but damn. I would worry about everything if I were in that town.
This is a setup for a joke I've heard before, I swear
It's the same premise as the hitman's bodyguard
What's a "rectory shake"? Is that a new colonic?
Pretty wild if the different killings going on there are connected, but the poor old woman was shot with three crossbow bolts and then they slit her throat. In the article it also seems to be laying the blame on out of towners from the larger cities, yet some of the stuff going on there sounds personal and connected.
Whoever wrote this headline is an asshole.
But at least it sounds like their vampire problem is being tackled.
I don't remember this level in Hitman...
