Man beheaded woman thinking she was Hitler

A deranged man was caught on CCTV beheading a grandmother with a machete in her back garden during a 45-minute rampage.

Nicholas Salvador, 25, had already beheaded two cats and was searching neighbouring gardens for more to kill, believing them to be “demons”, when he came across 82-year-old Palmira Silva, the court heard.

In his demented state, the paranoid schizophrenic killed Silva believing she was either Hitler back from the dead or a demon in the guise of a human.
