Woman Stabbed to Death

Two women were unloading a "Meals on Wheels" van at a Montessori School in Rocky Mount, NC, when a man suddenly attacked them in a robbery attempt, stabbing one to death and putting the other in the hospital with serious injuries. The women attempted to fight him off, but were unarmed, while he had a knife. Does that suggest anything to you? It does to me. If one of those women had been armed with a stun gun or pepper spray, the ending might have been different. (Rocky Mount Telegram, 10/18/07)
