Man decapitates apparent stranger in Canary Islands supermarket

(CNN) -- A knife-wielding man attacked a woman in a supermarket, eventually cutting off her head and running away with it, government officials in Spain's Tenerife Island said Friday.



The man entered a shopping center in the town of Arona, in the Cristianos area of Tenerife, and stole a knife from the supermarket before attacking the apparent stranger, a central government spokeswoman said.



Shopping center security guards were alerted and chased the man, subduing him until police arrived. The man, whom national police in Tenerife identified as a Bulgarian, was apparently known in the shopping area, the government spokeswoman said.



The British Foreign and Commonwealth office confirmed Friday that a British national had died in Tenerife, part of the Canary Islands.

Heard this on the news yesterday... and it really sicked me

I also know that the culprit that did this is a homeless Bulgarian man where he then got arrested subsequently.

That woman was actually from where I live - Norwich. I didn't know her though. Very very sad. New reports are that he was stalking her http://uk.news.yahoo.com/british-woman-decapitated-tenerife-034518045.html
