49 year old Dias Costa defended his home from four armed
burglars by hacking them to pieces with a Samurai sword when they invaded his
home in Cordoba, central Argentina late at night.
According to a report by Mail Online, Costa slashed the
face, arms, and necks of the raiders, who fled the property in a getaway car
while dripping with blood. All of the men are currently in intensive care.
The man and his wife were asleep when the men, who were
armed with two pistols, broke in at around 3.30am.
Police commissioner Mariano Zarate said:
‘In a moment when the attackers were not paying attention,
the house owner took a samurai sword and defended himself, injuring the
attackers and making them run away.’
The thieves fled in a Peugeot 206 car which was parked
outside.
Bleeding heavily, the driver lost control of the vehicle and
hit a stationary car forcing all four to go to hospital for emergency
treatment.
Police initially arrested two men and one woman, but another
man who hid was forced to come back to hospital the next day due to serious
sword injuries.
The Costa family has moved in with relatives as they fear
they might be targeted in revenge attacks.
Prosecutor Jorgelina Guties said: ‘We could not yet question
the victim of the burglary as he is still in a state of shock’. See more graphic photos after the cut.
