Two off-duty Florida law enforcement officers shot and killed an armed, nude woman at a party Saturday, the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office told the Tampa Tribune. “I can tell you she was not part of the gathering nor was she invited to the gathering,” Sheriff Al Nienhuis told the Tampa Tribune. “She came with a weapon and I would surmise that they felt their life was in danger.”
Two men had seen the woman, Inga Marie Swanson, 42, before the fatal encounter. One of them told the Tampa Bay Times that she was holding a large, silver cross. Swanson waved the cross in a circle over her head several times, they said. One of them quoted her as saying, “This is the Antichrist. Let’s wrap it up.”
