Okies, Edited in the whole thing.

OK, here goes. My friend Levi was stabbed in the chest while eating at Ana Purna (Our Dining Hall) this evening. He was at the table behind me, and my back was to him at the time. He was only stabbed once, but after that he turned purple, then white, and passed out. The police and the paramedics arrived, he was put on a respirator, and after that He looked a hell of a lot better, then they took him to the hospital.

Ok, here I go at attempting to summarize the events that lead up to this point.

I was in class today, Education For Enlightenment, we had just meditated, and were watching a Maharishi Tape. In other words, I was asleep. I awoke to "****!" and turned around to see that Schubender (Schube) had John Killian in a headlock, and was punching him in the face. We quickly pulled them apart, and Killian was bleeding from the face. Professor Boothby and Professor Jones escorted the two out. Eventually Killian came back, to get his stuff. According to everyone around, including Killian, there was no provocation for the attack whatsoever.

Apparently, After this, Schube spent the evening with Joel Wysong (The Dean of Men), where it became clear that Schube had serious undiagnosed psychological issues. Wysong then let him go to eat at Ana Purna. Levi and I chilled out after class. We watched Naruto. We went to program. I got out of program earlier than he did, as he was snoozing. I went to Ana Purna, got my food, sat around with Kern, Andy, Aurel, Vikram, and a bunch of other guys. Levi came in later, and sat at the table behind me. We were talking, laughing, generally having a good time, when we heard swearing behind us. I dont remember the exact words. It was something along the lines of "What the **** did you just say to me?" "What the hell is going on?" And then I saw Schube pull away from Levi, and drop something. Levi was clutching his face, and looked shocked. There was chatter, screams, and generally "He stabbed him!" Schube backed away, Akbar picked up the knife off the ground, and put it on the table. There was blood on the table too. Levi turned purple, then collapsed into someones arms. Lyric called 911, and Joel Wysong apprehended Schube. There was general comotion and panic, then I ran out to Highway 1, and re-directed the ambulance (Which had just made a wrong turn) to Ana Purna. The cops were already there, and Kern says he saw them cuff Schube and remove him from the premises. Inside, The paramedics rushed in, and hooked Levi up to a respirator. He looked a hell of a lot better with that thing running. There was more general commotion, and he was taken to the Hospital. They are saying its Touch and Go right now. It seems like the stabbing, like the assault on Killian, was completely unprovoked.

*EDIT*
Levi Butler passed away a few minutes ago.
Schubender has been officially arrested.
*EDIT*

*EDIT2*
Levi Butler was pronounced dead at 8:30 March 1st, at Jefferson County Hospital, in Fairfield Iowa.
Schuvender Sem has been charged with First Degree Murder.
It seems Levi was stabbed at least 4 times, Probably the first 2-3 times in the back, while he was sitting down, then when he got up, and to say "WTH is going on?" he was stabbed the final time in the chest.
In the picture in the Newspaper, that **** is smirking.
Here is an excerpt from the newspaper, note that it is truncated, simply because the full article is a selling point, and the media is a commercial business.
<!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->A Maharishi University of Management student died Monday night after being attacked with a knife in the university's dining hall. Another student was arrested and charged with first-degree murder.
      Fairfield police officers responded at 7:03 p.m. to a report of a stabbing at Annapurna Dining Hall on campus. When they arrived, they found Levi Butler, 19, bleeding from stab wounds to the chest.
      Butler, a freshman from California, was taken to Jefferson County Hospital by ambulance. He was pronounced dead at approximately 8:30 p.m.
      Shuvender Sem, 24, an M.U.M. student from Lancaster, Pa., was arrested and charged with murder.
      Officer Colin Smith, who responded to the call, said Sem was still on the scene when police arrived. The suspect was not armed.
      "He was taken into custody without incident," Smith said. "He was actually extremely calm."
      Smith estimated there were at least 50 people in the dining hall when he arrived.
      Although an autopsy has not yet been conducted, Smith said it appeared Butler had been stabbed at least four times.
      The homicide is being investigated by the Fairfield Police Department, Jefferson County Police Reserves, Jefferson County Attorney's Office and Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation.
      After the killing, police learned of an incident earlier in the day involving the same suspect. Sem had allegedly attacked another student earlier in the day, stabbing him with a pen.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

The local news station, KCRG, has their stories up. Their info isnt as complete as what I have mentioned, but they have videos of the broadcasts, and more general info...

Also, I found some info on a previous incident involving Schube in Philadelphia.

    That's really terrible... It must have hit something real important for that to happen...


    Any more details? How big was the knife? What cause the death? bleeding?


    My best wishes go out... the kind of people that kill unprovoked are the scum of the earth... even those with mental problems shouldn't be in society if they commit something like that.


    Seeing someone pass out is a terrible experience in itself... i know a kid who passes out around blood and it's just the most eerie sight to see someone turn white and go limp... i can only imagine what it would feel like to have them never wake up. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->
