A bookkeeper at the North Point Inn was just doing her job when she was robbed at knife point. She soon found a fellow employee of hers murdered not far from her office.
At around 9 a.m., Nina Cortez, a bookkeeper at the North Point Inn for seven years, was starting her normal workday on this fateful morning. She first chatted with Kevin Blohm, one of the cooks but also her boss and walked with him to a nearby corridor. This was the last time anyone had seen Blohm alive.
Not long after, Cortez started her normal count of the previous night's receipts at her desk. Only a few minutes later, "a man came around the corner, carrying a knife," she said. Startled, Cortez screamed and kicked before falling to the floor. The assailant reached across her desk and left her office with $130 dollars. Cortez was not harmed.
A few minutes later the police arrived. "I went into the hallway with the police and saw the blood on a door in the reception area," she said. "It was awful. There was blood on the walls and floor."
Cortez believes the assailant is in his early 20s and between 5 feet 10 and 6 feet tall with a medium build. She added that the suspect had on "blue jeans, a blue plaid shirt and blue tennis shoes" with a floral scarf, "tied around the lower part of his face, cowboy style."

This is revolting that someone would do that. Good article pick, however it could have been condensed down!
