The people outside saw the scene and screamed in terror.
“This guy is completely insane!”
After being stabbed once, Anne collapsed onto the floor. She was too afraid to move again.
The man pinned Anne down and shouted at everyone outside. “Back off! Or the next stab goes straight into her
throat!”
The officers, who had just been preparing to rush in, immediately backed away after hearing that.
