A northeast Missouri man has been accused in a gruesome murder case in which he allegedly cut up his victim and threw the severed arms at witnesses who had gathered around.

Police were called to an apartment complex on Valley Forge Drive in Kirksville on a report of a car on fire in the parking lot.

When cops arrived, they found the vehicle consumed by flames, as well as two nearby apartments that were also on fire.

Must have cost them an arm and a leg.

He was just exercising his right to keep and bear arms.

Lots of cutting remarks here.

On a much more sobering note, Kirksville ain't too far from where I live....

The key thing here is the last two words of your post...........be glad.

You need to keep wacky neighbors like that at arms length.

I'm sure many of the neighbors thought he was disarmingly normal before the crime.

I didn't know you could chop off somebodies limbs with an assault rifle?????? I'm sure it had to be an evil assault rifle. I'm going to go out on a limb and say mental issues are once again the primary cause in a horrific crime.

Out on a limb, you say? No need to go to such an extremity.
