And speaking of random attacks...
How would you protect yourself if these two decided to slit your throat with a couple of kitchen knives in front of your house on New Year's Eve? The guy is still in the hospital.

Two men charged with killing two families in Richmond told police they first slit the throat of a 25-year-old Arlington County man on New Year's Eve, breaking two kitchen knives in the random attack, according to court records filed yesterday.
Ricky J. Gray and Ray J. Dandridge, both 28, "admitted to being involved in the stabbing" while being questioned by police in Philadelphia, where they were arrested Saturday in the Richmond slayings, according to Arlington Circuit Court records.

During the interview, the men told police that pieces of long kitchen knives with black handles were left at the scene. The attack on the Arlington man, who has not been identified because he is a witness, occurred outside his parents' house on North 25th Street, and he remains hospitalized, police said.
The statements were included in a warrant Arlington police obtained to search the home of Gray's grandmother Tuesday night. Inside the house, in the 2100 block of South Monroe Street, police found two kitchen knives with black handles, the records said.
On Dec. 31, when police arrived at the Arlington crime scene, in a quiet and relatively safe area of the county, a trail of blood led them from the house to the victim's car, which was parked across the street, the records said. Police found three pieces of broken knife blades and a black handle but had no suspects until a call from Philadelphia police. Arlington police said robbery was the motive.
The Dec. 31 attack preceded the slayings of seven people -- including two children -- in their Richmond homes Jan. 1 and 6. Authorities said they are also investigating the pair in the killing of Gray's wife, whose body was found in Washington, Pa., on Nov. 5, and a Jan. 3 home invasion in Chesterfield County, a Richmond suburb.
