The first deputy to arrive at the home at 19000 SE Kokomo Lane saw the suspect on top of the male victim in the driveway. The suspect was biting off parts of the man’s face, police said.
Officers tried to pull the suspect off the victim to no avail. “They used as much force as they physically were able to, ” he said.
Even a police dog couldn’t get the man to release his victim.
Finally, cops wrenched the suspect off the dead man. Inside the home they found his wife, also stabbed to death. The reason for the argument, or its fatal turn, is still unclear, as is the exact nature of the relationship between the victims and the suspect.
“They clearly knew each other, ” Snyder said.
