英语自学网

　　A middle-aged man was fatally stabbed outside a nightclub late Saturday
night. Bob Evans died about 1:30 a.m. after a woman stabbed him in the back
outside Lovers Lounge. Police who arrived at the club found Evans lying in the
parking lot with a bloody ice pick on the pavement next to him. A sobbing woman
was cradling the victim’s head in her lap and stroking his hair.
        　　Police identified the woman as Sara Haynes, 39, an emergency room nurse.
They took her into custody and said she would be booked for murder. She was
Evans's long-time girlfriend. The lounge's bartender said Haynes started arguing
with Evans when she saw him dancing with a young woman.
        　　“I thought there might be trouble when I saw her walk in,” said the
bartender. “She was looking all around, with a wild look in her eyes. He was on
the floor dancing away with this young blonde. She went straight at them. She
pulled the blonde out of his arms and started yelling at him.”
        　　Evans then led Sara outside, apparently to avoid a scene inside the club. A
witness who was sitting in his car told police he saw them argue for a couple of
minutes. When Evans turned around to walk back inside, Sara pulled the ice pick
out of her purse and stabbed Evans several times. He collapsed to the ground.
Then she sat down, put his head in her lap, and started crying.
