Phoenix police officers found a
woman's decapitated body and two mutilated dogs inside an apartment
where officials believe the man responsible also cut his left arm off
and removed one of his own eyeballs
The gruesome scene was discovered just after 9:45 a.m yesterday Saturday July 25th in the area of 13th Place and Colter Street, police said.
Sgt.Trent Crump, a police spokesman, gave this account of the horrific incident:
"A male neighbor knocked on the door of the apartment to check on the
43-year-old suspect, whom he hadn't seen since the day before. When the
man, whose name was not immediately released, answered the door, his
left arm was severed at the elbow and his left eyeball was missing.
The neighbor could see that the apartment's floors and walls
were covered in blood and immediately contacted authorities. Officers
saw several knives in the residence, and it remains unknown which were
used during the slaying and self-mutilation.
When officers arrived, they detained the suspect and entered the
apartment. There, they found the woman's decapitated body inside a
walk-in closet. Two dead dogs were also discovered inside the residence.
"It was an absolutely horrific scene," Crump said.
The suspect spoke with police
officers outside the apartment and indicated that he "killed three
family members," Crump said. It was unknown if the suspect was referring
to the woman and the dogs or other relatives, but police are checking
on other family members.
The woman's name was not immediately released.
Crump said the suspect was taken to a hospital, where he was undergoing surgery.
Crump wouldn't specify the
relationship between the suspect and the woman, but said that the man
has a "known mental illness" and that police have received calls to the
apartment regarding the female victim and suspect.
"These two have a history of a domestic-violence relationship," he said.
