A Russian scientist working in Antarctica faces charges of attempted murder after allegedly stabbing a colleague for revealing the end of the books he wanted to read.
Sergey Savitsky, an engineer, is accused of stabbing welder Oleg Beloguzov in the chest, reports the Sun. Beloguzov was evacuated to Chile for treatment and his life would not be in danger.
