Boy Killed With Meat Cleaver For Playing Video Games
A 28 year-old Californian male has been arrested for killing a 6 year-old boy with a meat cleaver and critically wounding the boy’s mother. The suspect, Calvin Sharp, knew the boy and his mother, Sandra Ruiz, 33.
A neighbor, 21 year-old David Crawford said to the Los Angeles Times, “He [Calvin Sharp] said he was tired of him playing video games all the time. He said his ex-wife had cheated on him and was sleeping with all his friends.”
Crawford also says, Sharp shouted at the boy “die, die” as he struck him in the head repeatedly.
Sharp was restrained by residents as the attack took place in the middle of the courtyard. Resident Joel Alfano says, “I’ve lived here three years and we’ve never had anything like this. This is way out. This is the worst – savage, brutal, I’m speechless. It’s always strange when it happens where you live.”
