A man in Watertown, Wis. stabbed two people with a sword and killed one of them, according to local police.
Police charged Young Choi, 29, with first degree intentional homicide last Friday after the death of his neighbor, Dustin Vanderheyden. Choi allegedly killed him Thursday at their apartment. A witness saw Choi attacking Vanderheyden, 27, with the sword. Shortly after, he swung the sword at the witness and gave him a cut in his hand, according to the criminal complaint.
Vanderheyden was pronounced dead during surgery and police found Choi at the top of a stairwell and arrested him.
Before the fatal attack, Choi allegedly had been making bizarre comments for a week, saying that he is “God,” according to Vanderheyden’s wife’s testimony in the criminal complaint. Choi also allegedly told her that she should leave her husband to be with him and said he plans to stab him with a sword.
