Tragedy on Q St.

As you probably already heard, tragedy hit Q St. once again this weekend when a domestic dispute led to the stabbing of an elderly couple. The husband died at the scene and the wife is still in critical condition. Their son–who reportedly has struggled with mental health–is the lone suspect.

As pointed out in this piece, there is a morbid coincidence that this tragedy occurred the same week that Albrecht Muth was convicted for killing his wife Viola Drath blocks away on the same street. And that murder was itself preceded by the equally horrific murder of Alan Sennit in 2006 just steps away also on Q St.

This appears to be a horribly sad story of mental illness taking a deadly turn, although we should hear more in the coming days.

On a less serious note, though, the local news stations should hire a cartographer:
