WV KNIFE AND GUN CLUB - Violence Erupts At WVU St. Pats Celebration, Police Kill Man In Weirton |
| (03/22/2012) |
| POLICE SHOOT ROBBER - Weirton Police Chief Bruce Marshall says one of his officers shot and killed a suspected robber Tuesday. Media outlets say the shooting occurred about 5:30 a.m. in a shopping plaza just off U.S. 22. Marshall says it happened during the commission of a felony but didn't specify what crime was being committed. He did say the victim is believed to have committed an armed robbery at a gas station about an hour and a half before the fatal shooting. Marshall says the shooting will be investigated by the West Virginia State Police. The state medical examiner is conducting an autopsy. MORGANTOWN STABBING - Police in Morgantown confirmed what appears to have been a stabbing from the weekend. It is officially under investigation. The only problem is the victim was said to have been so intoxicated that police are having a hard time figuring out what happened. The incident happened during what has been called a St. Patrick's riot on and around the WVU campus, where students and visitors set at least 30 fires. The weekend ended with violence and several arrests. 38-year-old Jimmy Stephenson was walking along the rail trail in Morgantown when he was allegedly confronted by a man who stabbed him with a pocket knife. Stephenson was taken to Mon General Hospital then later transferred to Ruby Memorial Hospital. The so-called riot was filmed by a crew and has placed on YouTube.
