Blood is Thinner than Inheritance as Woman Shoots Relatives
.
Summary:
Arming herself with a semi-automatic pistol, which the police believe to be purchased online in parts and assembled by the combat-trained suspect herself, a 44-year-old woman was ready to “talk” with her four aunts and uncles about inheriting the fortune of her grandmother. When negotiation failed, the woman shot each of her relatives, killing one and critically injuring three.

Language Enhancement:
Armed (adj.)(持械的)
Arm (v.)(武裝)
Arm 作形容詞時意思與名詞的「手臂」無關，而是指某人是「持械的」，因此在外國新聞報導中不時會聽到在逃的疑犯或恐怖份子是 armed and dangerous，即是他們持有武器，着市民小心提防。作動詞時用法是 arm + oneself + with + N.，意思除了是以甚麼武器把某人「武裝」起來，也可引申指「裝備」自己。
e.g. The armed robbery resulted in the death of a security guard, who was killed by a shotgun blow to his chest.
e.g. The SWAT team is armed with special weapons designed specifically for close quarters combat.
e.g. It is our institute’s belief that graduates in the 21st century should be armed with critically thinking skills and global vision. —————————————————
