"This is probably one of the most vicious and gruesome incidents that I’ve witnessed in my 20 years," Chief Jakari Young told. "We can’t rule out that this may be totally random, but if it is totally random, the person responsible has to be deranged."
Both victims, a husband and wife, suffered multiple stab wounds and lacerations, according to police. They were found early Sunday morning. Officers responded to the double homicide after 1 a.m. after someone called 911 to report the two in the road. The reporting party thought the victims may have been involved in a hit-and-run."My wife is not leaving the house by herself. I can tell you that right now. And obviously, it was a man and a woman, so it makes you think even the both of us. How safe is our neighborhood?" asked Donald Sears.
A husband and wife were stabbed and their throats were slashed while riding bikes in Daytona Beach, police said. They are now searching for the person who did it. Officers believe the person of interest is a man wearing white or light-colored pants and a backpack.
