BEWARE: Axe Wielding Naked Woman on the Loose in Louisiana

Every once in a while, you run across a news story that's so unbelievable that you have to double check to make sure it's not coming from the Onion or Babylon Bee.  This is one of those instances.

My normal routine is to check news feeds in Louisiana & Texas just to see what's going on.
