(CNN) -- A knife-wielding man attacked a woman in a supermarket, eventually cutting off her head and running away with it, government officials in Spain's Tenerife Island said Friday.

The man entered a shopping center in the town of Arona, in the Cristianos area of Tenerife, and stole a knife from the supermarket before attacking the apparent stranger, a central government spokeswoman said.

Shopping center security guards were alerted and chased the man, subduing him until police arrived. The man, whom national police in Tenerife identified as a Bulgarian, was apparently known in the shopping area, the government spokeswoman said.

The British Foreign and Commonwealth office confirmed Friday that a British national had died in Tenerife, part of the Canary Islands.

Sadly, reminds me of that incident a while back on the Canadian bus, with the nutjob who hacked of the sleeping guy's head. No one thought to do anything against the knife-wielder? Its a supermarket, no one could find anything throw at the guy? Heck, a broom handle to the face?

Canada disarmed its citizens.

Let someone come at me with a knife and see how it ends up.

Without Google, I'm not sure where Tenerife Island is, but I believe Spain's anti-weapon laws are pretty strict, again, not sure how they relate to Canada's though. A supermarket of people, and no one does anything? I would like to think that I would be better than that in a similar situation here. Course, I live in Phoenix, a knife wielder attempting that would have several bullet holes by the time the police arrived.


my comment wasnt intended to be smart. i edited it after i noticed that people like u would misinterpret it. let's not derail this thread, Bateluer.

So you deny that it makes you look like an ass when you call someone else out on their smart ass comment while editing out your own?

She followed Neckbeard's advice and chose not to do anything to harm him until she was sure he actually was going to hurt her. Better to be sure than hurt somebody that might only maim you.
