Beheading: It’s All in the Family

A family dispute in the French city of Lyon took an unfortunate turn today when a young man decapitated his father in a parking lot. It was an “Allahu Akhbar” moment for the youngster, but French citizens were reassured by the police that the youth was not thought to have been radicalized.

Lyon: Man beheaded by his son in a parking lot

August 14, 2022

The suspect, of Moroccan nationality, was arrested while walking around with his father’s head in one hand and a knife in the other.

A man in his 60s was beheaded with a knife late Saturday night at Saint-Priest, in the Lyon area. His 25-year-old son was arrested at the scene, we have learned from multiple sources.

The initial elements of the investigation on “the murder by beheading,” show that the man taken into custody “killed his 60-year-old father using a kitchen knife,” the Lyon Prosecutor’s Office stated to Agence France Presse.

“A head in one hand and a knife in the other”

In the night, “around 2am, municipal police alerted the national police to the discovery of a beheaded body in a parking lot. The municipal police reported that a man was walking around with a head in one hand and a knife in the other,” according to a source close to the case.

BAC [Anti-Criminality Brigade] police, who arrived as reinforcement, were able to arrest the man, “who tried unsuccessfully to stab them,” according to the same source. According to ActuLyon, as he was fighting against police, the man reportedly cried, “Allahu Akhbar.”

The suspect, a Moroccan with legal immigration status, is known “for common law incidents, family disputes involving alcohol or drugs,” according to the same source, as reported by AFP.

The man who was placed in custody is not known for incidents of radicalization, the same source added. The investigation, assigned to the Rhone Security Department, “will determine the exact circumstances of the tragedy as well as his motive and will delve into the personality of the perpetrator,” according to the Lyon Prosecutor’s Office.

  1. Indispensable cultural enrichment!
    The enrichers will build the Wakanda and make everything a glorious golden utopia like their homeland? (snarkle)

  2. Another Jihadi in training it seems.
    Well, at least he kept this particular “cultural enriching” practice in the Family and wasn’t branch it out to the innocent.

    • The challenge is in encouraging the rest of the orc hordes to freely exercise their fratricidal tendencies.

  3. To paraphrase the Borg:
    Prepare to be assimilated into islam. Resistance is futile.

    • I keep insisting resistance is FEUDAL, and thus obligatory !

      Self-defense is not only a natural human right, but it is also Christian religious belief that we have an obligation to preserve our own lives, and those of others dependent on us, e.g. one’s wife and children.
