Man Hangs Himself After Beating & Stabbing Girlfriend


"DAYTON, OH — A nine hour police standoff ends with a mother of two suffering a violent and brutal death, and her boyfriend who held her hostage - dead.

"Police say Jordan Rudd, 24, violently killed Heather Bell, 38, before he hung himself in his home at 807 Nordale in Dayton.

"Investigators say Bell died from head trauma. She was also stabbed several times in the upper torso.
Last night her uncle called 911 when he hadn't heard from her about her kids. He was watching her 2 boys.

"`She's not around and she always calls about her kids. And I'm scared,` he said to the dispatcher.

"Police went to her boyfriend s house to check on her but Rudd wouldn't open the door.

"`Mr. Rudd stated he was keeping her hostage and would kill her. .. officers saw a gun and requested back up,` said Chief of Police Richard Biehl.

"Swat officers surrounded the home for hours and tried to talk to Rudd, but the talks ended in tragedy. Police looked inside and found two bodies. Police believe Rudd killed Bell even before officers came to check on her.

"`It's sad. Its sad. Why wouldn't he just let her go. Its not right. It's horrible, absolutely horrible,` said neighbor, Brian Wendling.

"Rudd did have a criminal past. He was arrested for felonious assault in Clark County."
