Virginia (ChattahBox) – In another tragic act of violence at Virginia Tech University, a 22-year-old woman has been decapitated by her 25-year-old friend, in a public cafe on campus.
Xin Yang, a 22-year-old exchange student studying accounting had only been at the university for a few months, according to the administrators. She had been quiet, and had few friends, one of which was Haiyang Zhu, also from China, who was listed as an emergency contact.
According to students who witnessed the scene, the two have no been arguing at the time of the murder, and there had been no warning. When police arrived at the scene, Zhu was holding Yang’s head in his hand, having sawed it off with a kitchen knife.
Zhu was not known as having any psychiatric problems, but recent posts on a Chinese forum said that he had been stressed and angry over falling stock prices, and felt like killing someone, or himself.
He has been charged with first degree murder, and is being held without bail.

I didn't see this posted yet but my GF and I have been talking about this story as I'm sure most of you have been too. She was in a public cafeteria and the guy used a kitchen knife, nobody stepped in?? I don't think it was Yao Ming cutting her head off, could you really just sit there and let it happen without trying to stop it? It has to take a awhile to get a head off with a kitchen knife.
Anyways, who wants to go to VT?
