World News: Relative of US Olympic coach killed

This is a sad way to begin the Olympics. 🙁

The Story via The Associated Press:

A knife-wielding Chinese man attacked two relatives of a coach for the U.S. Olympic men’s volleyball team at a tourist site in Beijing, killing one and injuring the other on the first day of the Olympics on Saturday, team officials and state media said.

The man then committed suicide by throwing himself from the second story of the site, the 13th century Drum Tower just five miles from the main Olympics site.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family of the one slain and are with the Olympic team affected by this horrible tragedy.
