Knife Story

 Around 9 PM last night (Friday)....over in Mainz-Kastel (the east end of Wiesbaden)...cops got called.

Location?  Refugee shelter.

What they came upon was a stabbing incident in the shelter....two women (early 30s, early 40s) wounded, and some guy with a knife.

The knife guy?  Well....he had retreated to some apartment and wasn't going to come out in a friendly way.

The local cops?  They went to book, and called up the SEK guys (over in Frankfurt).  The SEK folks are what I'd call 'bad-ass' highly trained German federal cops and they train daily for situations like this.

SEK arrived....eyeballed the situation, and around 2 AM.....got into the apartment.

The knife guy?  Bad off, already from previous wounds, and he would die at the hospital later.

Drugs or alcohol in the mix?  No one says much.  An investigation will follow.  My humble bet is that he was on something, and just reacted to something said by one of the women.
