Another one?

From CNN:

ATHENS, Greece (AP) -- A 31-year-old Greek man accused of beheading his girlfriend with a cleaver is being treated for gunshot wounds at a state hospital in Athens after being shot by police and remains in a critical condition, Health Ministry officials said Monday.

Police said restaurant cook Thanassis Arvanitis severed the head of his 25-year-old girlfriend on the holiday island of Santorini and tried to escape in a police car. A police officer and three female bystanders were also injured in the incident that occurred Sunday in the village of Bourboulos, near the island's main town of Fira.

Following an argument, "the [suspect] slaughtered their dog and threw it out of their home and on to the street and proceeded to kill the woman ... totally severing her head," a statement from the South Aegean Police Department said.

As some have said, "I'd rather be shot than hacked to death."

Here's the story.
