Los Angeles police are investigating a bizarre Samurai sword attack that left one woman dead and two others wounded.
Amid the ongoing demise of California, crime has skyrocketed to the point that many no longer feel safe on the streets of the deep blue state’s major cities. Many fear being assaulted or carjacked by criminals let out of jail by soft-on-crime Soros-backed district attorneys — but now a new fear has been unlocked: sword attacks.
Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputies were called to the scene of a bizarre crime on a residential street in San Dimas on Thursday afternoon, where a presumably mentally ill woman carrying a Samurai-style sword waved them down. The woman, who reportedly wanted to show the sword to the deputies, was covered in blood and had cuts on her right leg and hands.

After placing the sword on the ground and raising her hands in response to orders from the deputies, the woman then led deputies to a nearby home, where a woman was found covered in bloody slashes. She was pronounced dead at the scene, while another woman was found in the house suffering from a heart attack, with no visible signs of sword wounds. Police rushed the woman to the hospital, initially reporting it as a “medical emergency” with no details.
The bizarre situation left many confused, as the injured woman carrying the sword was reportedly the aggressor in the situation, while the woman suffering from a heart attack was reportedly not harmed during the dispute that left the third woman dead.
Los Angeles Police Department officials are investigating the motives behind the bizarre, deadly attack, which has been difficult because the women involved only speak Mandarin Chinese — though they have reported that the attack may have been part of “some sort of domestic dispute,” according to a news broadcast from local station KTLA.
Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department Lt. Daniel Vizcarra explained the situation in a press conference, telling reporters that the department’s “preliminary investigation suggests that there may be a family connection, but again, because of the language barrier, we have not confirmed that.”
