What's That Smell? -- The Maniac Stabbing People For Making Fun of His Farts

A 21-year-old Bristol, Conn. man is facing murder and assault charges after he stabbed four people at a party Saturday night, one fatally, because they were making fun of his farts. Marc Higgins, who was drunk at the time of the stab-ation, told cops he was furious about being mocked and wanted to teach his friends a lesson. Matthew Walton, 21, was stabbed to death and Sandra Ranger, 18, David Klett, 19, and Tyler Basso, 18 were injured.

A female friend got in an argument with Higgins over the flatulence and slapped his face. The young woman confirmed that Higgins had been passing gas and that “everyone was upset” about it. She said she slapped Higgins because he “singled her out and called her a tramp,” according to the case report. [Eyewitness Donal Phillips] said that after being slapped Higgins got very upset, smashed a beer bottle and stormed out of the house. About 45 minutes later Sandra Ranger “busted” through the back door and said, “Oh my God. I got stabbed. Call 911.”...The first police to arrive at the scene said people were “crying and screaming” that two people had been stabbed....Higgins showed up in the lobby of the Bristol police station abut ten minutes after the stabbing was reported. He was lying on the floor on his right side. Police said they heard him say repeatedly “I did it,” “I need help” and “They deserved it.” Police said Higgins had two knives on him. One had an 8.5-inch blade and the other had a 6.75-inch blade. He also had a BB gun. At around 1 a.m., while Higgins was being advised of his constitutional rights, police asked if he could read and write. He replied “somewhat” and said he could read and write, “just not very well.” Police said Higgins said that the woman slapped him in the face and made him very angry. He left the party and walked up and down the street for a few minutes, then “decided to return to the party and stab everyone in the house.” He also said he stabbed “his friend Matt,” then threw a knife at him. He also said he didn’t target Walton and Ranger, “they just happened to be the first people he saw when he returned,” according to the report.

Marc's being held on $2 million bail and farting up the jail cell, as we speak. Remember, we know all about farts.
