The attack took place at the Santo Espiritu del Monte Monastery around 10am Saturday, with local TV reporting that seven of the monks were injured after a man took the staff from the statue of Saint Louis in the upper cloister and attempted to carry out his plan to "kill the monks." Only two members of the order were able to escape the attack, one who was taking mass, and another sitting in the garden.

You remember the "Ghandi II"? "No more mr passive resistance!" From UHF IIRC.
