Three mental state of human can can quickly shift to becoming violent when rationality is no longer commonplace in the brain. A chemical imbalance takes place when the person truly believes that his only course of action is to harm. Quick to anger, and lack of mercy. The intent was severe as he approached the scene with a weapon.
I wish them all well.
Kudos to the Police for the safe release of the wife and daughter. Trust they all receive the support and counseling they probably need
after such an ordeal.
