Axe Slayer Surrenders In N Jersey

Andrew Urban 50 known as the axe slayer surrendered to New Jersey State Police after a deadly attack on his cousin in Farmingdale. He ambushed 54 year old Virs Gombos as she worked in a corn field, killing her, wounding her teen son Stephen 17, and fleeing into woods before a 30 man posse captured him near a phone booth in Howell township. Gombos died at Filkin Memorial Hospital after being crushed by the attacker, while Stephen described Urban as attacking without provocation and potentially mentally unstable. Police noted Urban was estranged from his wife and had recent mental health hospital contacts, though no inmate record was found at Marlboro State Hospital.
