A schoolboy in South Africa has killed a classmate and injured two gardeners while dressed in a replica of the costume worn by Slipknot drummer Joey Jordison. The boy, who has since been arrested, was reported carrying a sword and had taken drugs.
Captain Jacob Raboroko of the Johannesburg police: "He stabbed one of the schoolkids in the neck and he died. He then went further and stabbed a gardener in the back and another gardener in the face. They were taken to hospital in serious conditions".
This will no doubt reignite the debate over whether music turns people into killers. It doesn't.
