Woman stabs, kills two tourists in Atlantic City, police say

Authorities say a Pennsylvania woman fatally stabbed two Canadian tourists during a botched robbery in Atlantic City. WCAU's Ted Greenberg reports.

Two Canadian women staying at an Atlantic City casino were stabbed and killed Monday in what appears to be a random attack in broad daylight, Atlantic County prosecutors told NBC10.

Police tell NBC10's Ted Greenberg the deadly stabbing happened outside of the AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center, City Campus, across from Bally's Casino on Michigan and Pacific Aves around 10 a.m. as the women walked towards The Walk outlet stores.

Witnesses told investigators that a woman who was later identified as 44-year-old Antoinette Pelzer was trying to rob one of the victims: a 47-year-old and an 80-year-old both from Canada.


 

Bail is set at $2 million for Pelzer, who was taken to the Atlantic County Jail on Tuesday morning, according to The Press of Atlantic City.

Police Officer Jacob Abbruscato was patrolling the area and saw the attack in progress. Investigators say he ordered Pelzer to drop the knife and then arrested her.

The victims were rushed into nearby AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center with stab wounds to the upper body. Both women died Monday afternoon, according to prosecutors.

Police say Antoinette Pelzer, 44, stabbed and killed two Canadian tourists in Atlantic City.

Police say the attack appeared to be random and unprovoked.

Pelzer was being held on $250,000 charged with two counts of aggravated assault, robbery and weapons charges. She has a Pennsylvania license and police were trying to figure out how long she has been staying in A.C.

Police say homicide charges are expected to be added. Police are not releasing the names of the victims at this time.

Let's lynch her!

See, this is how easy it is to start a riot....by saying these simple words...but then again did any in the Black community say boo when people were calling for Zimmerman's head and that he should be killed and the New Black Pussy Party put out the reward for Zim dead or alive.

Okay, we don't even know the race of the victims, so to say she is racist is DUMB! To say "let's lynch her" is something a puss from the Klan would say. Why does EVERYTHING have to revolve around race?????? Don't y'all get sick of that isht? What this woman did was WRONG. She obviously has mental issues, just like ANYONE who decides to kill innocent people. To liken her to Zimmerman and that whole effed up scenario is not even plausible. She and Zimmerman are both murderers and both should be charged according to the crime. I don't think killing another as restitution for a death is the answer. Let them sit in a 4x6 prison cell, eating that nasty food, being told what to do day in and day out, chained, fighting for their lives each day. This deranged individual murdered two innocent people. Take color out of it. It's more cut and dry that way...

Personally, I think the cop should have emptied his magazine into "Ms. Pelzer". He saw the crime in progress, so we know for a fact Pelzer is guilty. Ten rounds of 9mm or .40 cal is a lot cheaper than the trial and jail will be.

Do you realize how scary your proposal is? A cop shoots the wrong person, and now the innocent victim MUST become a criminal in order for the cop to be exonerated.

So when a cop shoots your uncle by mistake, now he has to lie and say your uncle was committing a violent crime. Hey, the cop saw the crime in progress, so we know for a fact the dead person is guilty.

I'm not saying Ms. POSelzer is innocent. Only that we should NEVER EVER EVER give cops the authority to become judge, jury, and executioner. That's scary, scary, ground to tread.

These crimes can happen anywhere even in a Posh cushy Suburban well to do area. But it does show there are more dumb criminals than smart. Why do a crime where there are more cops? Id go to better areas where there is less of a police presence. But thankfully I understand that earning money is far easier than stealing it. Thieves always get caught sooner or later. And the amount of time you lose in fines and jail time far outweigh the gain. And straight killing them for money pathetic.

Don't forget the Free Lawyer, Free College Education, etc. All Paid For by YOU for the rest of your life.

Stop trying to justify stupid, rc-4121998 already told you what the area is like,

rc-4121998 - lol thats crazy im from the city i live right around there in my hood. lol tourist are stupid for coming to atlantic city. were trying to get out of this city and stupid tourist come here. if your gona travel

Just like that Gated Community at Florida (Zimmerman vs Martin), with the area being like this (why everyone pays more to live in a Gated Community like prisoners):

US teen guilty of murdering 2 British tourists

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/46885491/ns/us_news-crime_and_courts/

And what did you post what_the_81, about that in you UNINFORMED Post about Zimmerman. I copied pasted your Newsvine Posts to notepad and saved them and can repost them here to EMBARRASS the crap out of you what_the_81.

Face it the US has lost it's common sense. "I didn't do anything to them why should they harm me". Go into the Projects (Ghettos) intentionally because you are curious.

XDm9mm - Personally, I think the cop should have emptied his magazine into "Ms. Pelzer".

Yes, sure and that "Cop" would have been placed on Administrative Leave while being investigated by Internal Affairs as to if that was a "Justified Shooting". While on Administrative Leave that means one less Police Officer on the Job. The Internal Affairs Investigation is a Permanent Black Mark against the "Cop's" Career, meaning less "Cops" will be willing to show up during a Crime in Progress and will wait until AFTER the Crime.

Your very screen name XDm9mm indicates that you NEVER killed anyone before. 9mm, REALLY. FACT: Only 2% of the World will kill without hesitation and most of those are us (trained and conditioned to do so for decades, human beings as targets; as to why we undergo mandatory intensive psychological exams every year with detailed psychological exams and continuous observations after each mission.). You can say what you want; regardless of the training, conditioning, experience, you can always visualize each person you killed before and the details of each event even if in the hundreds; after finally getting out most of us become alcoholics just to pass out to get a good nights sleep or overcompensate to try to do some good and continue to Serve the US Citizens by becoming First Responders, Law Enforcement, Firefighters, EMTs, etc., as to why many of us died during and after the 9/11 2001 Attacks, with my reforming a "Vengence Force" of US Military Asymmetric Warfare Teams as Revenge to get the Fundamentalist Islamic Jihadists of Al Quada, Fundamenalist Islamic Jihadists, and Fundamentalist Islamic Taliban Government; including chasing them into Northern Iraq and fighting them there also as Ansar Al Islam during 2002 Operation Hotel California.

It is those that have never killed before that demand that we do it for them:

Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (US Military paid below minimum wages):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgPFocv89Hg

And we have to live with what we have done (Terminations of Human Beings as Targets), and do NOT say that bullsh!t "Volunteer Military"; their excuse "For the Needs and Matters of National Security" override that:

I'm A Fool to do your Dirty Work (Wet Work):

To go get YOUR hands, conscience, etc. dirty.

johngis - I would have done just that without a badge.. just saying shes got a knife and stabbing people... if thats not a good enough reason to unload a clip i dont know what is.

And your arse would have been Accused of Murder, Detained, Interrogated, Investigated, Arrested and Tried for Murder. FYI, they do not have a "Stand Your Ground Law", so the First question to be asked is, "Could you have run away (fled) from the attacker", if yes, you are Guilty of Murder. "Could lesser means of Force other than Deadly Force have been used", if yes, you are Guilty of Murder. Did you post anything like that before on Forums, Social Media, Texting, etc., if yes, Premeditate Murder. Have you ever been a trained US Law Enforcement Officer, this can work for or against you.

joeyfromcali - These crimes can happen anywhere even in a Posh cushy Suburban well to do area.

Just as UNINFORMED as what_the_81. Both of you need to be curious just like those British Tourists. It is just like you do NOT go into the Suburbs of Washington D.C. unless you want to get murdered, raped, robbed, armed assaulted; that "When you outlaw guns then only the criminals will have guns" is absolutely true for Washington D.C. as to one of the reasons why the US Supreme Court Ruled Against the D.C. Anti Gun Laws.

joeyfromcali, don't lie, you know the areas of (SOCAL) Southern California that you do not go into. If you don't you better learn really quickly. Why I still never visit my Relatives while passing thru LAX even if I have a stop over of a day.

AND I TOLD YOU BEFORE YOU HAVE TOO MUCH TO FIX AT YOUR BANKRUPT ILLEGAL ALIEN HARBOR STATE OF CALIFORNIA INSTEAD OF POSTING UNEDUCATED CRAP ON NEWSVINE.

And all you did was argue your uneducated, uninformed emotive opinons (I copied and saved your posts so that I can repost them and embarrass your arse).

What I stated before:

State and Federal Income Taxes are NOT Paid by Illegal Aliens, as this is done thru Employer's Paperwork as State and Federal Income Tax Withholding. Employer's Paperwork is used by ICE to apprehend and deport Illegal Aliens. So US Taxpayer Funded Illegal Alien Advocacy Groups like La Raza's Lawyers (and entire Law Firms) have Advised Illegal Aliens to "Work for Cash Only".

The Result for your being uninformed and uneducated, the expected State Revenue was over $100 Billion. Due to Illegal Aliens not paying State Income Taxes, the actual State Revenue was $85 Billion.

The amount of money previously spent 2004 by your Bankrupt Illegal Alien Harbor State of California on Illegal Aliens was over $10 Billion, $7.7 Billion Education for Illegal Aliens, $1.4 Billion for US Taxpayer Funded Health Care (what US Taxpayers do not have, "Free" Health Care), $1.4 Billion for the Imprisonment of Illegal Aliens convicted of Violent Crimes (Murder, Rape, Armed Assaults, Random Gang Murders (for Initiations), etc..).

So based on President Obama's Policy that Illegal Aliens be counted by the US Census (Census Takers not allowed to ask the Citizenship Status), YOUR Bankrupt Illegal Alien Harbor State of California included the Illegal Aliens as Bankrupt Illegal Alien Harbor State of California Taxpayers for their new budget (over $100 Billion).

Due to the States neighboring YOUR Bankrupt Illegal Alien Harbor State of California passing and enforcing States Anti Illegal Alien Laws, more Illegal Aliens fled those States to YOUR Bankrupt Illegal Alien Harbor State of California, so instead of spending over $10 Billion on Illegal Aliens YOUR Bankrupt Illegal Alien Harbor State of California spent over $25 Billion as I previously estimated based on your State Government's Data.

The California Sales Taxes that you claimed paid for the Illegal Aliens was only $17 Million.

So instead of $85 Billion - $10 Billion of 2004 spent on Illegal Aliens, you have $85 Billion - $25 Billion of 2012, some of that money could be found but $16 Billion could not.

And another I TOLD YOU SO.

And now your Governor is starting up with that "California Too Big To Fail Sh!t" for All US Taxpayer to Bailout your Bankrupt Illegal Alien Harbor State of California.

ASK EVERYONE HERE IF THEY WANT TO BAILOUT YOUR BANKRUPT ILLEGAL ALIEN HARBOR STATE OF CALIFORNIA SO THAT YOU CAN SPEND MORE ON ILLEGAL ALIENS.

And you think paying $90,000 a year Retirements and Cadillac Health Care for California Law Enforcement, Firefighters, Public Employees means you can afford MORE Law Enforcement, Firefighters, Public Employees, etc. LEARN SOME BASIC MATH.

AGAIN joeyfromcali FIX YOUR BANKRUPT ILLEGAL ALIEN HARBOR STATE OF CALIFORNIA BEFORE POSTING UNEDUCATED CRAP ON NEWSVINE.

TC-2599690 - i bet the Canadian women wished they had a firearm or some good citizen nearby who did.

Don't tell that to the Anti Gun Canadian Troll poster on Newsvine (regarding the Zimmerman versus Martin, "Only Cowards have Guns"). And the US Laws are clear, what I mentioned above to johngis, about a armed citizen's Use of a Firearm.

Al & Jessie will also buy her new clothes, a car, a home, and maybe Al will give her a job at his show on MSNBC. If not, they will at least organize a rally in New York City that dignitaries from the around the world will attend.

The victims families will understand as well. They too will assist in this poor woman's recovery. If Mrs. Obama or Jessie & Al have difficulties coming through for this woman, expect the victim's families to feed, clothe, and house her up in Canada.

The NKA loves it when people die because of knife violence. We need knives off the streets now.

A nut case on the street with a knife will kill one or two people. A nut case on the street or on a roof top with a gun can kill dozens. It makes sense to have strict gun laws. It doesn't make sense to equate guns with butter knives and say "See? See?"

So you also want to make it three or four times as hard to be able to drive a car? You want to punish "non nuts" for what a "nut" does. So you are saying that if anyone who has the same job as you does something bad, you should be punished also for their behavior? Why yes, you are saying that. Hey, someone could fly a plane into a building and cause even more deaths than a gun in a day. So why are there still private pilots out there flying? Why weren't they restricted more? Your arguement is weak and pathetic and does not pass the common sense test.

      Last Visited AC about 7 years ago. Was sad to see how run down the casinos and boardwalk had become. That could have been me and my elderly mom.

      Those casinos were supposed to help alleviate Atlantic City grinding poverty. But the ghetto cancer just swallowed it up. I expect the same will happen in my state's recently opened casinos.

      Legal gambling in PA and NY is killing Atlantic City. People don't want to go to AC anymore when nicer, newer, and safer casinos are all over PA.

      Since 1978, Rule #1 for gamblers going to Atlantic City has always been:

      #1 - DON'T GO OFF THE BOARDWALK. Do NOT cross Atlantic Ave for ANY reason.

      It's as true today as it was 34 years ago when legal gambling came to AC.

      NJ is trying its darnest to change that. I've been down there recently. They now have a nice new casino (Revel) next to the old Showboat casino. Plus, a new Golden Nugget has taken over the old Trump Marina by the Borgota. I think AC is trying to slowly squeeze out all the "undesireables".

      But definitely do NOT go for a jaunt away from the boardwalk at night. Too many... undesireables. And so I don't get my head handed to me, I'm talking about people of ALL races. Some of the white trash down there are downright scary.

      And you can believe that the Viet Cong were in Ross Perot's yard. You can believe that Obama is a Kenyan muslim. You can believe in Santa Claus if you like. All of those scenarios have a much higher probability than anyone from the U.S. Justice Dept looking to see if this woman's "civil rights" have been violated.

      You bring that up as if this happens all the time. Please show 1 shred of evidence to show that the Justice Dep't routinely gets involved with investigating the "civil rights" of a person caught red handed committing murder.

      Didn't think so. Just more hyperbole from the Right that adds nothing to the discourse, other than to show JUST HOW FAR OUT THERE those on the right are willing to take the conversation.

      For me, the scary is knowing that you REALLY BELIEVE that Holder's justice department does stuff like you accuse, despite absolutely no precedent or proof. You don't need proof do you? You just know it's true and that's good enough, huh?

        Why does it always have to be about crack? This woman's desperation is very easy to understand and it has nothing to do with drugs. Clearly, this woman committed this robbery because she is in desperate need of professional hair care services, which in this case is obviously going to be thousands of dollars. The poor woman just couldn't afford it. Certainly you can't expect her to just live with that? She had to do something.

        If you had this woman's hair, you would do EVERYTHING in your power to correct it, including robbery. You know it's true.

                    I have the unfortunate luck of being required to stay in Atlantic City a few times a year for conventions/meetings and I didn't find this shocking at all as the city itself has become a real **** hole in the last 5-7 years. They never should've walked to the outlet stores as the section of city in between the Casinos/Boardwalk & the outlets is 'seedy' at best and absolutely filled with all kinds of crazy individuals. The first and most important rule of Atlantic City is that if it's not inside the Casino you're staying at, TAKE A CAB.

                    Agreed, it's been going downhill for a lot longer than 5-7 years, my point was that it seemed noticeably safer to engage in something like walking over to the outlets five years years ago than it is now. I've been going there for about 13 or 14 years for business related trips and it just gets worse every year between the locals and the section of the city inbetween the casinos and the convention center/outlets.

                        It's a mugshot, not a headshot. Ask Nick Nolte.

                        I would like to know who the talented Beautician is that takes care of her hair, Such a modern carefree style.

                        This could be an upcoming trend.

                        These poor Canadian ladies did not realize how bad are cities are getting under the Barack Obama administration. The cops are treating these black criminals with kid gloves.

                        Of course the black racists will blame it on the white people that was robbed and murdered by a black. Now how is a racist prosecutor going to charge the white people for assualting a black murder. Send a racist woman to do the job while Obama demands the victims be charged because they were white. If you want you and your family to be robbed, heads chopped off along with your feet and hands vote for Obama!
