RUSSIAN SAUSAGE KING KILLED BY CROSSBOW IN SAUNA

Vladimir Marugov, a Russian billionaire known as the “Sausage King” (* Hey – that’s my nickname, too!) was killed by a crossbow Monday when two masked men attacked him and a woman in a sauna at his countryside estate outside Moscow. Mr. Marugov was found dead in the sauna after his partner fled through a window in the outdoor hut and notified police. She claimed the assailants tied up both her and Marugov and demanded money before killing him with the crossbow. They left behind the murder weapon before taking off in a car, which was later found. Mr. Marugov was the owner of the Ozyorsky and Meat Empire sausage factories. Since last year, he had been involved in a highly publicized property rights dispute with his ex-wife. It was not yet clear who was behind the attack and an investigation has been launched.
* Like his sausage, he was skewered during a roasting.
* That woman is lucky it wasn’t a double-barreled crossbow. They only brought the one arrow.
* It’s like an episode of a Russian version of “Fargo.”
* One day you’re the Sausage King, the next day you’re left on the scrapple heap of history.
* Who takes the title of Sausage King now? The Sausage Prince?
