A 30-year-old man stabbed himself in the fountain in the Plaza Roma in Zaragoza, right in the city centre, on Tuesday and died in the end. The deed occurred at around 11.45 a.m., when the man came into the gardens adjacent to the square completely naked and stabbed himself about ten times before falling into the fountain.
After being informed of a naked man armed with a knife, eight officers from the Citizen Security Brigade of the Aragón Police Headquarters went to Roma Square, where they appeared shortly before the man, whose identity is unknown, put an end to his life.
Furthermore, the “Periódico de Aragón” reported that although the officers asked the man to drop the knife and stop his actions, he finally stabbed himself in the stomach before the police could do anything. Ambulances later arrived and shortly after 12.05 p.m. the dead person was taken away.
Eyewitnesses reported that before stabbing himself in the fountain, the young man was walking naked along Calle Santander, and although he was carrying a knife, he did not try to attack people in the square.
The owner of the neighbouring Rio de la Plata café, David, said that “there was a very strong gush of blood” and that an unidentified woman jumped over the police barrier and jumped into the pond.
Good!
Well that’s one less bollock-brained bearded Muslim nut job to worry about.
Perhaps it will catch on.
Although I’d rather they would stab themselves to death without causing so much fuss.
