Police say a woman who was killed by a co-worker at a food distribution center in suburban Oklahoma City was beheaded.



Moore Police Sgt. Jeremy Lewis said Friday that the woman, who has not been identified, was beheaded by a man who attacked her and another woman Thursday at Vaughan Foods in Moore.



An off-duty officer who was working at the business shot the suspect. The surviving victim and the suspect were still hospitalized Friday.



The motive for the attack was unclear, but Lewis said the suspect and the victims were apparently not involved with each other outside of their work at the business.



Police were called about 4:15 p.m. to reports of a fight inside Vaughan Foods.



Lewis says officers were told that there had been a shooting.

WILL YOU FORGET THE HEAD SLICING THING!!!

[redwino]

Holy Shit! They've been reporting it as a stabbing since yesterday. This is the first time I've heard about it being a beheading.

ETA: I just saw where it was confirmed this morning that her head was severed. This is so horrible.

Do they do fresh cut produce? The knives those types of workers yield are no joke! I did a project with a larger fresh cut processor and was amazed at the speed and agility they worked with very large knives

Ugh, how awful.

I'm seeing posts from my right-wing FB friends saying that the guy was a Muslim and had been proselytizing at work. Don't know if that's true, but it's queuing up the "this is why Islam has to be stopped reactions."

Sent from the infernal device.

Lord.

Isn't beheading someone hard? Or do they have some sort of machinery he put to nefarious use?

[Velar Fricative]

Oh my goodness.

How long until people start blaming this on Sharia Law?

It looks like they do, so he'd have plenty of access to large/sharp knives.

I don't know if conversion to Islam was an added motive but I'm going with him just being angry about getting fired.

Also, this is why I don't like firing people. Any story of a fired worker killing old bosses/co-workers scares the shit out of me even if it's rare.

Holy shit.

[cinnamoncox]

That's insane. That poor woman

[orangeblossom]

iammalcolmx I know you didn't ask, but I just saw it come up on my feed, that the suspect is Black.

[blink]

Wtf? Wtf? Wtf?

Wasn't Nicole almost beheaded by OJ? Granted OJ was a strong athletic type and Nicole was very petite, but apparently with the right tools it's not that hard

NPR told me he was a recent convert and was trying to convert others. It also mentioned that he had a long criminal record so I'm wondering if he converted in prison. Maybe iammalcolmx will get me but I tend to think of black muslim and muslim converts differently.

I mean fuck, he was in Oklahoma, ffs. I'm going to assume he just lost his ever loving mind at work and just happened to use his own religion as an excuse to carry it out. I seriously doubt he was a card carrying member of ISIS determined to kill Americans.

[secretlyevil]

I...yup, I wish I hadn't read that.

[tictac]

Well...I'm horrified.
