Portage La Prairie, Manitoba Canada (The Weekly Vice) -- An unidentified man aboard a Greyhound bus has been arrested for murder after repeatedly stabbing and then decapitating a fellow passenger's head.
Wednesday night, passengers aboard a Greyhound bus heading from Edmonton, Alberta to Winnipeg, witnessed a horrific murder. Out of the blue, a man aboard the bus began repeatedly stabbing a passenger that was sleeping next to him. Witnesses say the man then cut off the man's head with a large kitchen knife and then began waving the severed head around.
"He didn't do anything to provoke the guy," said passenger Garnet Caton. "The guy just took a knife out and stabbed him, started stabbing him like crazy and cut his head off."
The bus was soon brought to a stop, sending screaming passengers out onto the Trans - Canadian highway. Reportedly, the bus driver and a fellow truck driver shut the man inside the bus with the victim until police could arrive.
Passenger witnesses say they stood outside the bus watching through the windows as the man continued to disfigure the victim's body.
Witnesses say at one point the murdering man indicated that he was going to exit the bus, but passengers ordered him to stay inside, threatening him with meg-shift weapons like metal bars and a hammer. The murderer then attempted to drive the bus, however he was unable to get the bus started.
Witnesses still reeling from the events of Wednesday's brutal attack described the horror of the event.
"When we saw the head, we knew he was dead," said a passenger. "I don't think the guy knew him at all. I think he was really crazy...the poor guy, he didn't see it coming."
"There was no rage or anything. He was like a robot, stabbing the guy."
"He just calmly stared at us and dropped the head in front of us. It was like he was at the beach."
"He dropped the head and went back and started cutting the body back up," said passenger Cody Olmstead.
At this point, Canadian officials have not released the name of the attacker or the name of the victim. A Canadian Public Safety Minister called the attack "bizarre", but did not discuss the details, saying he did not want to jeopardize the investigation.
