A female security guard at a Rockland County library was fatally stabbed when she asked the suspect to turn down the music he was playing on his phone, according to a report.
Blanchard Glaudin, 25, has been charged with second-degree murder after being tackled by patrons at the Finkelstein Memorial Library in Spring Valley, The Journal News/lohud.com reported.
“He was walking just a few feet away,” village Police Chief Paul Modica said Wednesday about the “random” confrontation a day earlier.
“She was at the computer terminals and told him he had to turn it down. That was it,” he said, referring to Sandra Wilson, 52, who was pronounced dead at a local hospital.
Wilson, who had two grown sons and a grandchild, had worked in clerical jobs at the library before joining its security team, the news outlet reported.
