Mississippi authorities responded early Thursday morning to the Hollywood Casino in Tunica and found an irate white male and mutilated body of a white female inside a hotel room, authorities said.
Security at the casino called the Tunica County Sheriff’s Office at 5:52 a.m. reporting screams from a hotel room and when police arrived they were met by a combative man, Bettye Hale, the executive assistant to the sheriff, told FoxNews.com.
The suspect, from Collierville, Tenn., was promptly tasered and rushed to nearby Baptist DeSoto Hospital, Hale said. Authorities have not released the names of the victim or the suspect because the families have yet to be informed of the incident.
Hale said the couple may have had a history of domestic violence.
