Our Crime Count Reaches Fifty

NBC 4: Columbus police said officers had to kick in a door that a North Side residence Saturday night to gain access to a badly bleeding man and the woman they believe inflicted his wound. Columbus police were called to the scene at 10:59 p.m.

Tim Spurlock, the 42-year-old stabbing victim, died shortly afterward at Riverside Methodist Hospital. Lori Loughman, 38, was charged with Spurlock’s death. A police report regarding the incident said after officers forced their way into the apartment at 6025 Shadow Lake Circle, they found Spurlock with a stab wound to the chest.

The suspect was also there when the police made entry, according to the report. The report said the stabbing was preceded by a verbal argument. Spurlock’s death was the city’s 16th homicide for 2009. Anyone with information on the crime was encouraged to call CPD’s homicide squad at 614-645-4730.

Just curious as to why you highlight this type of crime information on this blog. It feels out of place compared to the rest of your content.

Clubs, bars, nightlife... and... stabbing victims!
