running story

A crazed killer ‘laughed’ as he shot a dog with a crossbow this morning, before going on to murder two people including his own mother.

The murderer was shot dead just after noon when he began firing at police officers, but motives behind the killings are still unknown.

A fire was reported at Mr. Pascal Tonk’s home at around 11am, where his mother was found decapitated and his pet German Shepherd had died in the blaze.

Mr. Tonk shot his first victim at Horseshoe Common, a one-month-old Shitsu, and went on to kill a Belgian tourist by shooting him in the eye with the deadly, Olympic standard crossbow.

The 21-year-old began his rampage at 8am, when he hijacked a JCB digger at Chapel Gate Leisure Centre, using it to break into the Archery Range and stealing his high-powered murder weapon.

Senior Police Officer Alan Rose said Mr. Tonk was ‘mentally unstable’, and police helicopters along with 19 fire engines were on the scene to try and put and end to the bloodshed.

The Belgian national, Mr. Rattue, 32, was married with two young children, and was visiting the country for a Banzai growing convention along with close friend Dennis Landsbert, who said the tourists will carry on their trip ‘in tribute of Mels’.

Pascal’s mother, Louise Tonk, who is more affectionately known as ‘Lulu’, was 32, and had her head disjoined by her son with a machete.

The rampage ended with the death of Mr. Tonk at Talbot Combined School in Wallisdown, after fears for police officers’ safety arose after he began shooting at them with the crossbow.
