New and disturbing details have come to light in a shocking domestic violence case in Columbus, where police report that a man brutally attacked his ex-girlfriend in what authorities describe as a premeditated ambush.
According to officials, 50-year-old Philetto Daniel broke into his ex-girlfriend’s apartment and violently assaulted her, shooting her twice and stabbing her 37 times. Despite the severity of the attack, the victim miraculously survived and is now recovering from her injuries.
Sergeant Sherman Hayes stated that the attack appeared to be carefully planned. Investigators found evidence that Daniel had purchased several items used in the assault from various stores in Columbus prior to the incident.
On January 17, police responded to a call at the Sugar Mill Apartments, where they discovered the victim with multiple gunshot and stab wounds. At the scene, they also found Daniel with zip ties around his neck and suspect that he had ingested antifreeze. Investigators believe these injuries were self-inflicted, as Daniel had bought the items earlier that day.
The case highlights the horrifying nature of the attack and the victim’s incredible resilience in surviving such a traumatic ordeal.
