This happened back in October I did a search couldn't find a thread about it
anyway this chinese teen living in Canada is crazy and went to Glasgow because someone in his head told him to
while there he said everyone looked like zombies and he was being told he was going to get attacked by them
he eventually stabs a guy to death :/
the trial just ended and he's not guilty by reason of insanity
Jury clears teen from Canada who killed Scottish man he believed was a zombie

GLASGOW, Scotland - A teenager from Canada who allegedly stabbed to death a 21-year-old man in Glasgow, Scotland after hearing voices saying the man was a zombie, has been found not guilty of murder by reason of insanity.
Scottish media reports say a jury at the High Court in Glasgow cleared 19-year-old Tianhui Zhan of murdering 21-year-old Michael Davis on Oct. 13, 2010.
Davis had just finished work as a cleaner and was on his way to a second cleaning job when Zhan allegedly stabbed him three times. He underwent surgery but died from his injuries the following day.
According to the reports, the court heard Zhan picked his victim at random in an unprovoked attack because he believed Davis was a zombie who was going to attack him.
The court also heard that Zhan, who is of Chinese origin but lives with his parents in Canada, travelled to Glasgow after hearing voices saying he should go there.
He reportedly told a psychiatrist that he started seeing blood over the faces of people and was convinced they were zombies.
The teenager, whose home town is not known, is now receiving treatment at a local hospital for paranoid schizophrenia.
Media reports say the court heard that Zhan had suffered from mental health problems since the age of 14 and had consistently refused to take his medication.
oh looks like the BBC reported about it yesterday

the guy he killed, rip
Judge O'Grady said: "This all happened in a few minutes of madness.
"The deceased Mr Davis was a hard-working man who had his life snatched away from him and another very sick young man is likely to spend his life behind the walls of a secure unit.
"There are no winners in this case. Sadly there are some things in life that just can't be fixed."
