The
horrified security staff at The Sirhowy Arms Hotel in Argoed, South
Wales, burst into the room after the murder suspect refused to let them in.
Williams had just been
released from jail two weeks earlier, where he'd served half of a five-year prison sentence for a violent attack
on his partner.
The hotel staff called police
who hit Matthew Williams with a high voltage taser which knocked him to
the floor. He was formally arrested but died moments later due to high
voltage.
His victim, a 22-year-old woman who he'd just met, was also confirmed dead from her injuries.
According
to Jill Edwards, who lives near the hotel, he said: ‘This animal was
eating this girl to death. Security said they told him no girls in his
room and he didn’t answer, when they opened his door he was eating her
face.’
A Gwent Police spokeswoman said: ‘We were called at 1.23am
after a reported that a man was attacking a woman in the Sirhowy Arms
Hotel. On arrival both the male and female were still at the location. A
taser was discharged and a man was arrested. The woman was located with
injuries and has since been pronounced deceased. While under arrest,
the man became unresponsive. Officers and paramedics administered first
aid but he has since been pronounced deceased. A murder investigation is
underway into the death of the woman.’
