Slaughter Continues

Slaughter Continues
An unidentified foreigner was found floating in the Thames last Tuesday, the 24th. Another victim in the so-called Egyptian Murders? Inspector James Barrington of the Yard refused to comment when asked by The Scoop.
Sources exclusive to this journal state that the victim had been beaten severely and then stabbed through the heart in a manner curiously similar to other murders that have taken place over the last three years. The connection seems obvious but New Scotland Yard has yet to confirm that the deaths are connected. Inspector James Barrington and his colleagues appear baffled and no closer to catching the heinous perpetrator of these crimes. Londoners cry out "When will our streets be safe?"
Readers of The Scoop are reminded that this esteemed journal has a reward, now standing at £24, for information leading to the apprehension and conviction of the murderer. Be vigilant!
